"There is now a white 2022 Manga del Brujo Blanco produced with 50% Macabeo and 50% Garnacha Blanca grapes, a white with some lees and a little bit of oak. The style of their wines is more Burgundian, with direct pressing of the bunches and fermentation in old oak barrels. It has good concentration, character and style, with balsamic and medicinal notes, bay leaf and orange peel. It has good ripeness, 13.7% alcohol and good freshness from the altitude of the vines and an early harvest. It is tasty, clean and with an herbal touch in the finish. 6,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2023, six days before I tasted it!" - Robert Parker's - The Wine Advocate
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.
A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
