ICE

Medium dry Sparkling wine

Origin

ICE sparkling wine comes from the Denominacion de Origen Protegida Valencia region. The climate in the region is strongly influenced by the warm Mediterranean weather. The vineyards in the region grow on a clayey surface and bask in hours of sunshine.

Description

We select the finest grapes of Viura variety. We ferment using selected yeasts at a temperature of 16ºC to make the base wine. Later a second fermentation takes places in pressurised stainless steel tanks using a technique known as the short Charmant method, at a controlled temperature of 16ºC until the pressure reaches a maximum of 4-5 bars. The wine is filtered under pressure using Tangential flow filtration and bottled including the remaining natural residual sugar.

Tasting notes

Colour: Bright yellow with green tinges.
Aroma: Very fruity with white fruit character, such as pear and apple together with stoned fruit such as peach.
Taste: Deliciously fresh and crisp. A creamy sensation from the fine mousse, well balanced, with citric and floral flavours and a long finish.

Serving suggestions

Gran Castillo ICE is ideal as an aperitif or to accompany all types of fish, seafood and rice dishes. Always serve very chilled at around 4ºC.
