Aloers 2021
£18.74 (Inc. VAT bot. 75 cl.) / North Ireland
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Aloers is pure Xarel.lo from limestone soils and has a marked Mediterranean character. It has 11.5% alcohol with a low pH of 3.02 and 5.7 grams of acidity. The full clusters had a short maceration, and the juice fermented with indigenous yeasts. There was bâtonnage for one month and then another six months of élevage without stirring the lees. It's very expressive of yellow fruit, with more complexity and depth, with some skins and lees to give it more on the nose and more density on the palate. It has freshness, hints of talcum powder and dry flowers, with the freshness from the 2021 vintage, a dry year after a rainy one. It finishes very tasty and makes you salivate, with an almost salty touch. 9,0000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2022.

Description
Aloers is a young white wine made exclusively from Xarel-lo grapes by the Celler Credo winery in the Catalonia region of Spain.
The name Aloers was given in Catalan in the Middle Ages to farmers who owned their land and did not have to pay any tribute.
The grapes for this magnificent wine come from a vineyard cultivated more than 50 years ago on calcareous soils and following the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture for the preservation of the ecosystem.
Winemaking
The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully selected to guarantee their excellent quality. In the winery, the must is left to macerate for a few hours with the grape skins and skins. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeast from the Celler Credo vineyard.
Subsequently, in order to give the wine finesse and structure, the wine was aged for a month in stainless steel tanks on fine lees for 6 months.
Taste
Aloers is a white wine with delicious floral aromas and mineral hints. On the palate it is unctuous and elegant with a rather salty finish and a sustained, fresh and natural acidity. The winery has made sure to delight the palate.
A fresh, vibrant, exciting wine
Aloers is a wine of great vivacity with a long bottle life thanks to minimal intervention both in the vineyard and in the cellar.
It also represents the best expression of the Mediterranean xarel-lo and the terroir produced by the Celler Credo winery.
In the gastronomic field, this wine is perfect as an aperitif and to accompany meals such as risottos, seafood, white fish and rice dishes.
