Aging: 2 winters. Aging potential: 15 years.
KORDE Blanc 20/21 is the inaugural vintage of PINEA’s first white wine. An inimitable wine that surprises everyone who has the pleasure of drinking it. KORDE Blanc is a wine that you feel before you raise your glass, whose creaminess becomes a caress in your mouth.
Straw yellow, sparkling and clean. Reminiscent on the nose of citrus fruit skins such as grapefruit and some white flowers, incensed by notes of aging. Powerful mouthfeel for a white with great texture and earthiness that cleanses a deep acidity resulting in a long and refreshing wine.
The very limited amount of white grapes that grow in our vineyards means that KORDE Blanco is a blend of two consecutive vintages which, after careful vinification, are aged in French oak barrels.
A reinterpretation of the Albillo that stands out in a land devoted to reds. KORDE Blanco represents the texture of the soil in the glass.
