MR Vesperi 2024:

Grapes are all hand harvested - left in a chiller overnight - then processed  the following day to further ferment separately. The Chenin Blanc was aged  in concrete, both the Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc were destemmed, skin  fermented for up to 7 days, basket pressed and then matured in older  French oak barrels for 9 months.  

After 9 months aging on lees - like with the MR de Compostella selection  process - we choose the best individual components in a blind tasting to  then thereafter blend them together in the cellar. The wine then naturally  settles for about 2 months before we rack and bottle the wine. The result  cuvee is called Vesperi (The Evening Star)

alc 13 | ph 3.27 | rs 3.95 | ta 5. 

MR Vesperi 2024  

The cuvee presents a lovely bouquet with lemon curd, French patisserie, egg  whites and light waxy scents. The palate is very well balanced, with a touch  of spice on the tensile entry. Notes of orange rind, apricot and meringue fan  out nicely toward the fresh, textured, slightly honeyed finish that beckons  you back for more.
