About the Wine
Presa Romana is a rich, concentrated and exotically spiced Macabeo from vines that were planted in 1905. The wine is fermented on its skins in clay amphora which lends a deep golden colour and a granular, tannic texture on the palate. It is broadened further by a maturation of 8 months in old French oak barrels. The wine is packed with salty preserved lemon and lime-y citrus as well as an undertone of of stony, smoky minerals and a balanced bitterness in the finish. At a sliver over £20 this is really great value for the quality here.
