Description

“The textbook 2023 Leirana is elegant, clean and expressive, with notes of white flowers and fruit, fine lees and herbs. It fermented and matured in stainless steel and 80% in oak foudres for six months. The palate is medium-bodied with good ripeness and a moderate 12.4% alcohol, keeping the freshness and balance and finishing with a bitter and salty twist. This is very tasty. 50,000 bottles. It was bottled in March 2024.” – 94 points, Wine Advocate

Forjas del Salnés doesn’t put the wines through malolactic, so they wait for good ripeness and lower levels of malic acidity.
