Tasting notes
Yum! Spicy, full of salty golden apple and chalk notes, almost like a Santorini wine but sunnier, more expansive, friendlier. More like a daffodil in full hot-day bloom. (TQT)

A bit of oak on the nose, with rich fruit concentration but not as much fun as the regular Vidonia. (JR)
The Listán Blanco 2020 Vidonia comes from the vines in Las Suertes, La Florida and La Mocana on clay soils that deliver wines with great finesse. It's 12.5% alcohol and has a low pH of 3.1 and 6.7 grams of acidity, quite high for Listán Blanco (Palomino), a grape that usually has moderate acidity. It fermented with indigenous yeasts in used 500-liter oak barrels and matured in a fourth-use 2,500-liter oak foudre and used 500-liter oak barrels for 11 months. It reminded me of the vibrant quality of the 2018, a white with lots of finesse, precision and harmony. It has an electric palate with a stony texture, with very clean and focused flavors and great length. This could very well be the finest Vidonia to date. 8,000 bottles were produced. It was bottled in July 2021.
