Sexto Elemento El Romano White 2023
Sexto Elemento is a tiny production estate with a key focus on one of Spain's underrated grape varietals - Bobal. Rafa Lopez took over the family farm in 2000. Instead of selling their fruit to the cooperatives like generations before him, Rafa decided to produce a powerful & elegant style of Bobal, as compared to the mediocre quality of the cooperatives
Scarce rainfall, hot summers, and bitter cold winters help to create a perfect situation for the thick-skinned Bobal variety, and at Rafa's mere 6-hectare estate, he only yields 1-1.5 kg per vine on average. An annual production of just 10,000 bottles makes these exclusive wines of Sexto Elemento a cult-style production, with the power and elegance to be one of the most coveted in all of Spain.
Grape Varietals & Region: Tardana & Macabeo blend from Valencia, Spain. It is a native varietal to Utiel-Requena, and comes from an old vine plot. Its name "El Romano" ("The Roman") actually comes from the vineyard plot name where the macabeo and tardana grapes are grown.
Taste Profile: A straw-white wine with floral aromas and well-integrated acidity. The Tardana grape gives it salinity and minerality.
Winemaking Process: It is made with indigenous yeasts. Fermentation is very slow for 2 months without the addition of chemicals that modify the fermentation.Β It is aged in barrels and stainless steel tanks simultaneously, with lees for 6 months.
