Overview

Llunari is a skin-contact Garnatxa Blanca made at Herència Altés. While this style of wine may seem novel in Spain for most wine drinkers, there has been an ancient history of vins brisats (skin-contact white wines) in Terra Alta for generations. Llunari comes from the younger vines in La Serra, sees a 20-day maceration, and is aged in amphorae.
