Blanc d’Enguera 2010

Another revival of a historic ingenious grape variety from Valencia in Spain. Over the last 20 or so years, wine growers and wine makers across the country have gone back to native varieties and in some cases almost extinct and are making outstanding, different and unique wines. These varieties when they are made in modern styles and with modern techniques they are truly unique because they have been adapted and have been growing in their particular terroirs for hundreds of years and they produce distinctive wines such as this. This is crisp with slightly honey, citrus flavours, given a little bit of oak but not too much, full bodied, beautiful texture with richness and concentration and very exotic, it ranks alongside Albarino as another superb variety for the future.
