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.

2019 Jurancon Moelleux, Domaine Corty, AOP Jurancon
White Blend
The Domaine Corty Jurancon Moelleux is a beautiful, enticing medium golden colour. The expressive nose shows typical aromas of quince, yellow peach and apricots which are intense but by no means over the top. The fruit characters continue to the rounded palate and are joined by hints of candied ginger spice, kept fresh by perfectly poised acidity on the long, perfumed finish. Enjoy this delicious wine with Foie Gras or soft cheeses.
