Bristat is Catalan for “wine fermented with skins”. This is made with 100% Garnacha Blanca from 20-35-year-old vines, planted on sandy/clay soils. A short maceration (four to six days) is followed by fermentation in steel where it ages for six months.

"Bright pale-gold hue, with a fresh-toned nose, showing blanched almond, grapefruit citrus, sage and a stony undertone. This is quite fresh and elegant on the palate, with good zest to the citrus fruit and a subtle bite at the end. Only 11.5% alcohol. Drink now. "

"The skin-contact white 2021 Brisat was produced exclusively with Garnacha Blanca (no more Macabeo) from organically farmed vineyards. It fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and was bottled unoaked after six months in vat. They want to preserve the freshness and the primary aromas, and this is light, with 11.5% alcohol. The wine is fresh and fruit driven, with very good freshness, very clean and with some varietal character. 6,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2022"
