The 2018 Mirabelles is produced with the rare and aromatic Malvasía de Sitges, a grape often used to produce sweet wines. But this is completely dry, and it fermented and matured in clay amphorae. It has a deep golden color from a vineyard regrafted to the variety. Despite the variety, the wine is austere and has vibrant acidity, and the texture and mouthfeel are about limestone—very dry and with a terroir sensation rather than the aromatic grape. It does have some notes reminiscent of apricot peel, and it develops nicely in the glass. This is quite unique and very attractive. It has incredible parameters, a pH of 2.84!! If one wine makes you salivate, it's this one!!
