La Fou – Els Amelers – DO Terra Alta

White grenache

Pale yellow with a rich aromatic expression, in which the citrus and floral notes give way to nuances of ripe fruit and tender almond. In the mouth, it has a generous structure and a lively acidity, with a long finish.

A pioneer in the White Garnacha style, different processes are carried out to extract the best qualities from each vineyard: the youngest vineyards are harvested earlier to enhance acidity and primary fruit, while the oldest are harvested at a more advanced ripeness.

Fermentation and aging for 6 months on lees, in concrete egg vats and stainless steel tanks, with 10% of the wine aged in 300L oak barrels.

The name “Els Amelers” honors the almond trees that live alongside the vines in the Terra Alta vineyards.

LaFou Celler was founded in 2007 with the desire to produce wines that reflect the greatness of the Garnacha variety in the Terra Alta. It was Ramon Roqueta Segalés, from a family with a long winemaking tradition, who undertook this project after being seduced by the Garnacha variety while studying oenology in France.
