Santa Cruz de Alpera Azul White Wine

The Santa Cruz de Alpera Azul White Wine from Bodegas Santa Cruz de Alpera presents this White Wine of D.

O Almansa (Spain) made from the Verdejo grape variety.

Harvest and Production: The vineyards where the Santa Cruz de Alpera Azul White Wine comes from are strictly selected by the winery team. Most of the vines are very old, with low yields, and their health is carefully monitored. By focusing on these three factors, they obtain grapes of the highest quality.

The harvest is done at night in a mechanized way so that the grapes arrive at the winery as cold as possible, avoiding light and high temperatures to prevent the bunches from oxidizing.

For its production, only the Verdejo grape variety is used, so being a white variety, it is decided to carry out a fermentation at a temperature of around 13ºC, which will allow for a greater production of aromas that will be reflected in the wine at the time of consumption.

Halfway through the fermentation process, it is paused by using cold, thus obtaining a product with low alcohol content and a natural sweetness, preserving at all times the carbon dioxide from the fermentation, which will result in a wine with a marked effervescence.

After the clarification and stabilization process is complete, one last step is taken before bottling: a blue food coloring E-133 is added to give it a striking color.

Finally, the wine undergoes microfiltration to preserve all its characteristics.
