{"product_id":"juan-carlos-sancha-ad-libitum-blanco-espagne","title":"Juan Carlos Sancha - Ad Libitum Blanco - 2025","description":"\u003cp\u003eLocated in Rioja, in northern Spain, the Juan Carlos Sancha estate cultivates its vines on the cool, breezy slopes of Baños de Río Tobía, in the Rioja Alta sub-region. The plots dedicated to the Ad Libitum Blanco cuvée are situated at altitude, on poor soils of clay and limestone, providing an ideal environment for the expression of indigenous grape varieties. The Atlantic-Mediterranean climate, characterized by cool nights and sunny days, promotes slow ripening, preserving the natural acidity and aromatic purity of the grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe grapes are harvested by hand and then gently pressed before careful settling. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the aromatic purity of the grape variety and the most precise expression of the terroir. The wine is then aged on its fine lees in stainless steel tanks for several months, with regular stirring to gain volume and complexity, while maintaining great freshness and a pronounced tension on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003ecrisp white fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003estone fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e , and pleasant \u003cstrong\u003ecitrus\u003c\/strong\u003e hints, complemented by \u003cstrong\u003edelicate floral\u003c\/strong\u003e notes and a \u003cstrong\u003emineral\u003c\/strong\u003e dimension that underscores its hillside origins.
