Description
The history of Cosmic Valentia was born from the desire to worship one of the forgotten jewels of the Empordà: the Cariñena Blanca. In a land marked by the tramontana, sandy granite soils and a light that sculpts the landscape, winegrower Salvador Batlle decided to go against the tide: to recover old vines - planted in 1964 and 1968 on the El Joan del Molí and Puig-Rodó estates - and vinify them with absolute respect for their origin. Cultivated according to organic and biodynamic principles, with traditional goblet pruning and a north-south exposure that moderates ripening, the vines express an honest character, without artifice.
Winemaking
At Cosmic Valentia, the grapes are harvested by hand, in small boxes, selecting clusters at their optimum point. After destemming, the grapes are macerated with their skins for 4 days, extracting structure and texture. It is gently pressed and ferments spontaneously, without added yeasts, in stainless steel tanks. Cosmic Valentia then rests for 4 months on its fine lees, gaining volume and complexity.
Taste
Cosmic Valentia is sober and direct. On the nose, it displays aromas of white fruit(green apple, pear), hints of lime peel and a granitic, dry, almost stony mineral background. There are also saline nuances, white flowers and a subtle touch of raw almond. The palate is vibrant, with a fresh, sharp acidity that sets the pace. The palate is tense but fluid, with a light texture and a long, saline and slightly bitter finish, reminiscent of citrus peel. It is a wine for those who seek authenticity, precision and the silent character of stones. A white that needs no frills to impress.
