Primitivo Collantes Viña Matalián Blanco Seco de Albariza 2023
Sherry Jerez - Manzanilla, SpainThe history of Bodega Primitivo Collantes dates back to the 19th century, with the arrival of brothers Primitivo and Tomás Collantes to Chiclana de la Frontera. Today the current Primitivo Collantes is in charge, a young and dynamic member of the new movement of Jerez wines. He oversees the family farm of 55 hectares of vineyards, including the lauded areas of Pozo Galván, Matlián and El Inglês. This organic, young vine estate palomino was rooted in the region's albariza soil, and native fermented in stainless, preserving all the crisp, shimmering fruit. Meadow grass, pear skin, green fig, and green apple streaks across the stony, slender palate, laced with salinity and lit with energy.Tasted: 07 July 2024Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $39.00 | 750ml | private wine stores |
