Pepe Mendoza Casa Agricola Blanco
Wine Description
This is a small production artisanal wine made with Moscatel de Alejandria, Macabeo, and Airén.
This white wine represents the two big terroirs from Alicante. The Moscatel of Alejandria is bathed by sea breezes and the Macabeo and Airén by the fresh winds in the Vinalopó highlands. Traditional goblet on drylands and Macabeo on low trellises with small water inputs.
The winemaker’s objective is to maximize the Mediterranean potential. The wine definitely reflects the sea, the mountains, and the character and all the magic of the Mediterranean.

Analytical Data
Wine Production
The vinification is carried out in tanks of 5000 L. The fermentation is under controlled low temperature at 15ºC without additional yeast or chemical products. Grapes are fermented with their own indigenous yeast and then the wine is in contact with its lees until bottling. The sulfurous addition is very minimal.
About the Vineyard
The vines are cultivated in a sustainable manner, growing in a way that respects the environment. The “Benimei” and “Serra Forta” parcels are located in the Comarca de la Marina, and Alto Vinalopó regions of Alicante in Spain.
