“Already creating a stir around the world“
Muchada-Léclapart is the project of David Léclapart (famed French producer of Champagne) and Alejandro Muchada (winegrower from Cádiz) in “Marco de Jerez”, a historic wine region, located on the Atlantic coast of Andalusia. Its objective is to create a great white wine, without flower veil and without fortification, based on the respect and care of the soul of Jerez: the Albariza land and the Palomino grape.
Lumière is our lighthouse that illuminates; balanced, serene, salty and elegant; the lively subtlety of the “palomino” grape. Its grapes come from our best plot: “La Platera”, located on a gentle hill of the “Pago Miraflores”, facing west, with calcareous subsoils of “tosca cerrada” of “albariza” at a depth of 2 meters. It stands out for its harmony, sumptuousness in the mouth, floral aromatic and notes of gunpowder, typical of a large “Pago”. Wood, soil and fruit are harmoniously united.
100% Palamino, vines at 60 years old. Fermented and vinified in used Bordeaux barrels (from 2013) for 9-10 months. Spontaneous fermentation; without rectification of any kind. Minimum initial sulphite. Work on lees. Without filtering or cold stabilizing.
