Solar Del Alma

Bellavista

Alma Gran Cuvée Franciacorta Brut White Blend

90 % Chardonnay, 10 % Pinot Noir and Pinot Bianco.
Traditional Champagne method with 36 months on the lees.
Golden green in colour.
Bread dough, lemon, green apples flowers and a touch of toastiness. Firm acidity with a fine creamy mousse.
Vittorio Moretti bought the property in the 1970s.
His first vintage in 1979 was made with the idea of having his own wine to drink with friends.
Let’s all agree that we need a friend like that.

Solar de Castro Vendimia Seleccionada Rioja Tempranillo 2020

Dry farmed! Color of blood. Or a bruised plum. Smells like Spanish red. Wood shavings. Berry-cherry pies. Menthol. Flavors are dense and on point. Plenty of woodsy stuff in the mouth too. Just a little fennel. Black cherries. Tannins are tongue drying and pleasant. Hint of licking a sharpened pencil tip perhaps. This is classic Rioja with all the trimmings. — 6 months ago

Alma Terra

Ponte Rias Baixas Albariño

Sharp aromas of flowers, pine and pineapple makes this distinctive Albariño from a single vineyard by the Rias Baixas region in Galicia, Spain to differentiate from others. Falls on the dry side and does not have a lingering long finish. A perfect companion on any seafood pairing. — 6 months ago
