Shukhrat, Gaspi Macabeo Tierra Blanca/Orange 2021

A natural wine from Valencia, Clarino, made from 100% macabeo. Biodynamic and minimally intervened. A full 25 days of skin contact and a minimum of four months of bottle aging.

A bit modest at first, but let the wine sit for a while and it will open up. The nose is full of notes of lees (yeast cells) and ripe stone fruit, with a light nuttiness, dried and caramelized fruit. On the palate, the attack is soft, nutty with a light bite and medium acidity in the finish.

Winemaker

Biodynamic wines, organic, and minimally intervened. These are the wines of Shukhrat Khakimov, a Uyghur native from Kazakhstan who has been cultivating wine in Alicante, Spain, for decades. After completing his viticultural training, he was determined to put this beautiful part of Spain on the international map. A distinctive character that produces distinctive wines. When he founded this winery, he established SK Viticultores, an organization where he and a group of oenologists create pure, minimally intervened wines. With various lines, they showcase the potential of this region, from super juicy reds to exciting orange wines.
