Description
The Ximenez Spinola Delicado is utterly delicious, showing an enticing deep golden colour, with exceptional aromas from the sun dried grapes and pronounced notes of orange peel and herbs. Smooth, round and intense on the palate with currants, dried apricots, toasted wood and immense concentration of fruit on the palate.
Grapes are hand harvested and carefully laid on the ground on food mats, not in the open field but in the beds (lanes between the vines), so that during the shaded periods, the skin can accumulate tartaric acidity. Exposure to the sun slowly and gradually dehydrates each grape, evaporating water and concentrating natural fructose. Only 300 kilos of raisins are obtained per ton of fresh grapes. Grapes are then transferred back to the wine press in crates, equivalent to the work of a double harvest. Once the grapes arrive at the winery they are pressed, obtaining only 200 liters of must per ton of fresh grapes, which ultimately gives this wine an extremely low final yield.

White Blend
The Clos le Comte is a tiny, organically farmed vineyard that produces wonderfully elegant Sauternes. The grapes are harvested after several passages through the vineyard ensuring that only the very ripest grapes are selected. Wonderfully ripe, concentrated and complex fruit aromas. The rich bouquet shows notes of dried fruits, almonds, apricots, fresh citrus and peach blossom. Well structured on the palate with a viscous density resulting from the high levels of botrytis. Beautiful acidity gives excellent lively freshness to the spicy notes on the long finish.
