Averesti Diamond Zghihara de Averesti Magnum 1500ML

0 out of 5

TECHNICAL INFORMATION:

  • Type: Dry
  • Alcohol: 14%
  • Color: White
  • Oak aging: No

ORIGIN:

Zghihara is an authentic Romanian variety whose history begins many centuries before the phylloxera invasion. Its very name shows its belonging to the area of Moldavia, more precisely Huși because when we refer to this variety we can only say that it is zghihăț (zglobiu), it wins you over by its simplicity, but also by the refinement gained thanks to the care with which, at our Averești Estate, this variety is vinified. Zghiharei grapes are very resistant to frost, drought, manna, they ripen later, at the end of September, beginning of October, without a very high concentration of sugar, consequently the resulting wine rarely exceeds 12.5% alcohol by volume."
MAKING PROGRESS:
Grapes were harvested in the morning until 10 o'clock, by hand with great care, at a sugar content of 195g/l., then destemmed without crushing. The grapes were cooled to a temperature of 10°C and then macerated in the press for 6 hours. The grapes were harvested by hand. The grapes were macerated at low temperatures, and the pressing was done cold. Fermentation of the must took place in stainless steel vessels at controlled temperatures.
TASTING:
Zghihară wine is a zghihăt (Playful) wine, where the high acidity blends very well with the full and refreshing taste in which we find fruity notes of green apple, gooseberries, but also vegetal traces of green bell pepper and fennel. The aftertaste is short to medium, mineral, with a citric and slightly bitter finish with traces of apricot kernels. Serve well chilled (8-10°C), it can be enjoyed at any time of the day, both as an aperitif and as an accompaniment to fish dishes, seafood, white meat, as well as dishes with soft-ripened cheeses.
