Cádiz Blanco 'Etoile'

• 100% hand-harvested old-vine Palomino Fino on chalk
• Spontaneous fermentation in old manzanilla & amontillado butts, aged on the lees with regular bâtonnage in the same barrels for 9-10 months
• Bottled unfined, unfiltered, with no cold stabilizing or SO2
• A mere 600 bottles produced in 2018

Alejandro’s notes: “Étoile is our star; dry, hectic, salty and elegant; a silent memory of our history. Its grapes come from “Pastrana Baja,” a vineyard of more than sixty years that we were able to lease for the first two years, located in the lower part of the east orientation of the “Pago Miraflores.” It highlights its memory of notes of sherry in a wine without intervention and without velo de flor.”
