GUTIERREZ DE LA VEGA | CASTA DIVA GOLDEN HARVEST 2024 75cl

Product Sheet – Casta Diva Cosecha Dorada 2024

Casta Diva Cosecha Dorada 2024 is a dry white wine produced by Bodegas Gutiérrez de la Vega in the D.O. Alicante, Spain. It comes from vineyards located in Plà de Llíber, in Marina Alta, with an average age of 40 years, where Moscatel Romano and Merseguera vines are grown in ferruginous clay soils with pebbles.

The harvest is done manually, selecting the grapes at their optimal point of ripeness. After a two-day maceration with the skins, they are pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts for 15 days. Subsequently, the wine is aged for 9 months, one third in used 500-liter barrels and the rest in stainless steel tanks on its lees.
