Elaboration

The grapes come from vineyards located in the Alicante region of La Marina Alta, cultivated in calcareous soils under a dry Mediterranean climate. The harvest is manual, selecting the bunches at their optimal point. The wine is made by spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in clay amphorae without the addition of sulfites. Aging also takes place in amphorae, under natural flor, for 5 months, without clarification or stabilization.

Pairing

Ideal with baked fish, steamed seafood, seafood rice dishes, vegetable dishes or raw goat's milk cheeses. Also as a meditation wine.

Óscar Mestre Insurrecte 2024 is an ode to Levantine tradition and enological freedom. A vibrant white, full of landscape and truth, looking out to sea from the land.
