Tasting Notes

The Latido de Sara wines are made in the oldest winery in Navarra Province - San Martin de Unx - who also have the best and oldest Garnacha grapes in the area. Many of the vines are planted on gentle hillside slopes (~650 meters in altitude), which are a unique characteristic of the Navarra landscape. Their wines are based mainly on Garnacha (Grenache) grapes, from low-yield vines over 30 years old, while the Crianza also includes Tempranillo.

The overall philosophy of the range - white, rosé, and red - is to produce intensely flavoured and complex wines which faithfully reflect the nature and terroir of Navarra Province.

This wine is a rarity - made from 100% white Grenache grapes, grown on hillside slopes at an altitude of about 650 metres. The vines are young (~15 years old), but they produce a clear representation of the terroir. Yields are less than 8 kgs./Ha.

Follows a traditional white wine production - the wine is fermented and aged in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Alc./vol.: 13.0%.

Tasting note: Bright, straw yellow colour with green tinges. Aromas and flavours of fresh citrus, apricot, and pear with slight mineral/herbal notes. Medium-bodied, dry, fresh and crisp, with a good balance between the fruit and the acidity. Nice lingering finish.

Pairings: Grilled white meats, fish and seafood, vegetarian dishes, sushi, and spicy Asian and Moroccan dishes.
