"There is a change in the 2021 Dido Blanc. More and more, they like skin-contact whites; so, they have increased the skin contact that started in 2018, and in 2021, they went for the full Monty: some 40% fermented with skins for almost two weeks. They like the wine; the part of Garnacha and Xarel.lo on granite are direct pressing. The wine has a golden color; the profile has changed, and it's more"
