Finca Calvestra Blanco Mustiguillo Margas 2017

Finca Calvestra Blanco Margas is a white wine produced by Bodegas Mustiguillo with the Merseguera variety.

Vineyard: Mediterranean mountain vineyard, at 900 m altitude. In Calvestra estate, Requena. Merseguera grafted on old Bobal vines. Vineyards in a small plot with soils composed exclusively of marl. Vines in strict dry farming with tillage. This is a small plot composed exclusively of loams. The loams are very special clays, converted into rock by the passage of time and saturated in calcite. This very interesting soil gives the Merseguera a markedly mineral character that makes it different from anything produced to date.

Winemaking: Cluster selection table, destemmed and lightly crushed. Gentle pressing. Fermentation in 500 litre barrels with indigenous yeast. Aged for 11 months on fine lees in 500-litre acacia barrels of various uses, second year of ageing in tank. Subsequent maturation in the bottle for two more years.
