Description
The VI de Sal is a unique wine from which we can only obtain a few bottles and not every year. It is the result of a vineyard on very special terroir near the Salinas Lagoon and of specific climatic characteristics that have to be fulfilled. The soil has very high salinity and the vines live at the limit, especially at the end of the ripening. There comes a moment when the vine, already heavily affected by water stress, is fed from the grape’s own juice for its survival. Within a few days the grapes lose sufficient water and, as a result, produces a very rapid concentration of the grape without reaching over-maturity. It is at this point that we harvest. However, to be able to vinify Vi de Sal the skins and pips should be at their optimum state of maturity.
These special and concentrated grapes are vinified in 600L open barrels slowly and with little intervention. Once this process is completed, the wine is drained and aged in 700L barrels for one year. VI de Sal is also a wine with minimal intervention in all respects, and only a small level of sulfites is added to the bottling.
The VI de Sal is a premium wine that highlights everything that can represent a wine from Alicante in the Vinalopó area. Its scant production makes it a very difficult wine to find. It is marketed with a difference of three to four years between the year of sale and its vintage. Its optimum time of consumption varies between four and ten years after harvest.
