Tasting Notes
Straw yellow colour with green undertones. Fine and lively bubbles. Notions of white stone fruit and citrus on the nose. Nice balance between sugars and acids, making it pleasant and always refreshing. The finish is quite long and confirms its remarkably balanced qualities.
How it’s Made
Macabeo and Sauvignon Blanc offer a fresh and tasty wine. The alcohol is extracted from the wine under vacuum and at low temperature to preserve its pure and aromatic character as much as possible. Demi sec dosed.

Region Notes
Vega Medien is from Requena, inland from Valencia on the Mediterranean coast of Spain. The winemaking tradition of this Valencian region dates back to ancient times: archaeological remnants demonstrate that wine production in Utiel-Requena is among the oldest in the world, dating back to the Iberian period, indicating that a robust winemaking tradition has existed for more than 2,400 years.
The climate is not only continental (long hot, dry summers and cold winters) but one of the most severe of all the Spanish grape growing regions. Frosts and hailstones are frequent in winter and drought common in summer. Temperatures can reach a maximum of 40°C in summer and drop to a minimum of -10°C in winter. Nevertheless, the vines are well adapted to such a climate and there is a Mediterranean influence due to the closeness of the sea (only 70 km as the crow flies) and the cool wind, known as the Solano, helps to keep temperatures down.
