Vidonia VP, Suertes del Marques 2023

The 2022 Vidonia V.P. comes from centenary cordón trenzado Listán Negro vines in the lieu-dit Las Suertes at 450 to 550 meters above sea level. It fermented in new 500-liter Stockinger barrels, where the wine matured for 11 months, which gives it a more Burgundian profile. It has lower alcohol than the 2021, 12.55%, very good freshness and acidity. The wine had been very recently bottled when I tasted it, and the nose was not focused. The search of finesse with this Listán Blanco is to age it in the style of producers he likes, like Roulot and Pierre-Yves Colin, using new barrels, but it can't be any barrel. 2,660 bottles were filled in August 2023.
