Bajo 0 Ice Wine Elaboración: Pressed at low pressure and also at Sub Zero (Bajo O) temperatures so that the ice crystals do not thaw. The fermentation of the alcohol is done in a stainless steel tank. And it is truly slow (90 clays) due to its low temperature and high sugar content. Little by little. the yeasts work their magic until they finally die, unable to ferment all of the sugar content into alcohol which results in a wine with a sweet taste, whilst at the same time retaining the perfect acidity and alcohol content to make for an incredible wine. Last but not least, it is bottled with light filtration and with no stabilisation or treatment so that its full personality and true nature shine through, and so it may have some natural solids in the bottle which do not hinder its quality in any way.

Tasting Report: Colour: pale yellow. with a steel coloured meniscus typical of white wines. Clean, bright and denser than a normal wine due to the residual sugars. Nose: Good intensity. Aromas of ripe fruits. exotic fruits, roasted fruits or competes, mainly, Palate: Warm start in the mouth. Balanced. Generous taste, with the fruity aromas mentioned above, and very pleasant light touches of the exotic fruits emerge in the aftersmell and render an even more subtle finish. Svveet but fresh touch.
