Bodega Aleanna El Enemigo Sémillon 2019

The 2019 Semillon is reminiscent of a white oak-aged Rioja, with grapes from Agrelo that fermented and matured in oak barrel for 15 months, 20% of them without topping up, which made the wine develop a veil of flor yeast. That made the wine unusually expressive and aromatic for the variety, yeasty and floral and with a light to medium-bodied palate, moderate alcohol and great freshness. It has a dry and serious finish, leaving a chalky sensation. Again, this is going to develop nicely in bottle. 3,000 bottles were filled in December 2020.
