Ava

Perfect Drinking Temperature: 8-10 grad
Alcohol: 12%

Fermentation: The King of Portuguese grapes, was pressed directly after harvest extracting the pigments ever so lightly from the skins. The ruby juice was slowly fermented under the cool temperatures of the winery with indigenous yeast.

Aging phase: After the majoirty of the primary fermentation was complete, the wine was transferred into the talha and sealed up tightly. The 9 month aging process helped the wine develop into a bone dry product, with a nice balance of fruit and minerality.

Tasting notes: This wine has the faint aroma of bing cherry and red fruit. The flavor is dominated by strong, clean minerality with a slight fruitiness. It has a strong dry beeswax finish from the talha with medium acidity.

“The world is large and sometimes overly complicated, but our vision here at D.O.M is quite simple. We look for healthy low intervention fruit and let mother nature do the rest. Our inaugural release of four natural wines were named after our prosterity, which represents something pure and something to rejoice over. Each wine is as different as each of the children represented on our labels. It is our hope that someday one of our children will want to carry on our vision of producing natural wines and living off of the land, like our ancestors did. Cheers, to keeping it slow and simple!” www.dom.wine
