castell d'encus taïka 2016
Reference: 105952Stock: 6 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
the ancestral sparkling white castell d'encus 2016 taïka was produced with blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon that partially fermented in oak barrels; the grapes were picked at 12% potential alcohol because he wants more complexity and character than if he picked the grapes at 10.5% potential alcohol, as he wants more than just autolysis in the wine. the wine has 12.4% alcohol and is bone dry, and no sugar was added at any point of the process. it's subtle, complex and clean, with full aromas and flavors from properly ripened grapes along with a creamy touch. this was disgorged in march 2022, so it had a long time in contact with the lees in bottle. it's a lot more complex than the majority of ancestral sparkling wines, and it has very integrated and small bubbles that make it nicely textured. this is about precision and finesse, bobet's signature. 3,200 bottles produced.
