NELEMAN
Neleman wines are Spanish organic wines of Valencia with a Dutch heart. With special attention for local authentic grapes, refl ecting the soil and region. Each wine has its own personality and you can taste the passion and love its been made with. We allow nature to do its work. Good wine is made in the vineyard.
VINEYARD & TERROIR
Neleman wines reflect the aromas and flavors of a precious and perfect terroir. The personality of the plot is reflected by minimal handling of the fruit. This wine is made from grapes that come from a very special vineyard on a particular ancient and sandy soil. The soil is from the Cretaceous and Jurassic times… so very very old, 140 to 180 million years old when Dinosaurs still walked on it. The Robusta comes from grapes from this plot named “Hoya de la Cierva” which means “small valley of the doe”.
GRAPE VARIETY
100% Bobal
VINIFICATION & AGEING
The fermentation takes place in a concrete open fermentor going through alcoholic fermentation for a period of 6 days in contact with the skins, then we transfer the wine to dry the wine in sugars and get the malolactic fermentation done in other tanks. After that we age the wines in 1000 liter french oak tanks as well as in french barrels for around 14 months.
