Buisson Pouilleux is a 1

Thinking that I wanted a bit of that bright fruit lift without going fully into the jolly  rancher spectrum and I also didn't want too much stem character on a wine that I anticipated being a bit on the lean side

Per Una Volta #2 is the result of a desire to take care of the vineyard planted in the garden of the castle of San Martino Valle Caudina

2022 Nanclares y Prieto Pensares de Alberto, Galicia, Spain Bichery carbonic maceration100% Espadeiro from a single parcel (Horta) of 40 year old vines in the town of Vilario. The vines are trained in the pergola method and planted on rich sandy loam soils over granitic bedrock. The grapes were harvested by hand, sorted, and crushed by foot, then macerated on their skins and fermented for 21 days before pressing into a small stainless steel tank. There, the wine rested on its lees for 11 months, with batonnage for the first month.
