Winemaking Process
Grapes harvested the First fortnight of October. A first grape selection was done in the vineyard and after the bunches entry into the cellar. Traditional winemaking, fermented at a controlled temperature of 28ºC and macerated for 10 days.
Tasting Note
Biga is a cherry-coloured wine of medium intensity, a modern Crianza, with the predominance of fruit to which noble wood contributes shades of complexity. We find delicate aromas in the nose: fresh and clean fruit, with tones of leather, spices and fine wood. In the mouth it is light, pleasant, emphasising a hint of freshness.
Pairing
White and read meat, lamb, pork and beef roasts, game, poultry, stewed meat, rice dishes, stewed pulses, mushrooms, cured and blue cheeses.
