Fletcher Cantina Della Stazione Langhe Favorita 2021

Cantina Della Stazione favorita is a new release and venture for Dave Fletcher. Coming from his own vineyard in the zone of Alba, this Langhe Favorita is produced from vines that are some 60 years old. Pretty on the nose with clear aromas of apricot and peaches that follow through onto a medium-bodied palate. Alongside stone fruits there's crunchy citrus and herbaceous notes finishing clean and sappy.

Pair with Thai green curry, fish or poultry dishes.The grapes are whole bunch pressed and the juice is settled naturally (without added enzymes or sulphur dioxide) for a period of 4 hours. It is then racked to French barriques of which all are old so as not to give wood flavour. Alcoholic fermentation is completed in barrel with no added yeast. No Malic fermentation. The wine will stay in barrique on fermentation lees for 8 months without battonage and racked only when it is time for bottling. The bottling is done without fining or filtration.
