Torres Milmanda 2016

Country: Spain
Region and Appellation: Conca de Barberà

Torres Milmanda 2016 is Spain's benchmark Chardonnay from the prestigious Conca de Barberà, delivering Burgundian elegance with Mediterranean character that captivates buyers seeking world-class white wines. Grown at 500 meters on deep, calcareous clay soils near the medieval Milmanda Castle, this single-vineyard expression unfolds baked apple, white peach, and orchard fruit aromas interwoven with wood spice, toasted almonds, and creamy oak notes.

Tasting notes

Full-bodied yet crisp, with layers of ripe pineapple, bright citrus, and nectarine balanced by vibrant acidity and a subtle mineral freshness; the finish is long, smoky, and impeccably refined.

Winemaking

Fermented in 80% French oak barrels and 20% oak vats for 2-3 weeks, then aged 4 months in half-new 300L barrels and 1,500L vats, followed by 12 months on lees; malolactic fermentation is avoided to preserve natural acidity and freshness.

Accolades

Awarded 93 points by James Suckling and praised as "one of the few Spanish Chardonnay wines which bears comparison with the great Chards from Burgundy,"
