Merce Carme 2020 Macabeo Spain

Description

Our Spanish winemaking partners at Merce Carme have crafted a pleasantly textural wine that will inspire you to break out your cookbooks in search of traditional Spanish cuisine. This food-friendly creation is made from the grape variety Macabeo. This variety is popular in several countries where it generally goes by different names. In Spain, it is best known for its role in the blended sparkling wine Cava and sometimes heavily oaked whites of the Rioja region (where it is known as Viura). Merce Carme has created a refreshing, fruit-forward take on this versatile grape. This wine is light and acidic, with a delicious essence of each fruit flavor. These grapes come from a warm Mediterranean climate where light oceanic influence moderated temperatures and preserved the fruit’s vivacious acidity. Stainless steel fermentation at cool temperatures maintained varietal flavors and an enticing texture. This wine offers a diverse array of aromas and flavors and is overall a beautiful expression of this worldly grape. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.
