The Wine Buff Cork - Bodega Sierra Norte Heraclio Uteil Requena – Organic

Grape Variety : Sauvignon Blanc , Macabeo

Fresh and fruity with mellow aromas of tropical fruits and white flowers. Tastes of melon, peach and apricot with excellent acidity and a long-perfumed finish.

The cellar of Bodega Sierra Norte is located in Requena and the vines grow about 900 metres above sea level in the village of Camporrobles, close to Utiel. The Bodega was started in 1995 and the first wines bottled in 1999. In the past the region was better known for the production of bulk wine, but recently local growers have focused more on quality and bottling. Among these is Sierra Norte who are leading the drive for better wines using local varieties.
