Sensory Description:
The nose of the 'Albahra' offers a bouquet of ripe red fruit enhanced by floral notes and a distinct minerality. On the palate, the wine showcases bright acidity, structured body, and power, all balanced by a silky texture. The finish is long and pleasurable, leaving an impression of elegance and depth. Flavors of fennel and subtle curry add complexity to the wine, making it a truly unique expression of its terroir.
Winemaker’s Background:
Envínate is the brainchild of four friends and winemakers: Roberto Santana, Alfonso Torrente, Laura Ramos, and José Martínez. This group met while studying enology in Alicante and formed Envínate to focus on expressing the diverse terroirs of Spain's Atlantic-influenced regions. Their approach is marked by a respect for tradition combined with modern, sustainable viticulture and winemaking techniques. They are known for their minimal-intervention philosophy, ensuring that each wine genuinely reflects its origin.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve the 2021 Envínate 'Albahra' slightly chilled, around 14-16°C (57-61°F), to best appreciate its vibrant character. It pairs beautifully with a range of dishes, from hearty meats like lamb and pork to flavorful vegetarian dishes that echo the herbal and floral notes of the wine.
The 2021 Envínate 'Albahra' is more than just a wine; it is a statement of artistry and passion, offering a unique glimpse into the lesser-known varietals and innovative spirit that define the new wave of Spanish winemaking. Enjoy this wine as a celebration of innovation and tradition, perfectly balanced in each bottle.
