Info
Mesquida Mora sits in the south-western interior of the popular holiday island. The synchronicity of life is more than a way of life for Barbara Mesquida Mora. Sincronia Blanc combines the youngest vines of the native variety Premsal with the oldest Chardonnay plants as well as smaller portions of Parellada and Giró. The Premsal undergoes a maceration period before fermentation. The other grape varieties are pressed directly without standing time before vinification. She sees it as a puzzle of vinification techniques. All four grape varieties are vinified individually and later combined.

Sparkling lemon yellow, golden reflections
Nose
2020 Sincronia Blanc conveys a warm, cosy feeling right from the start. At the same time, it loudly calls out "Welcome to the Balearics". Ripe apricots and peaches. Tarte Tatin and Apple Crumble. A little khaki and toasted almonds. Plenty of white flowers and dried thyme. The ideal Mediterranean wine is ready. A warm wine, but not perfumed or artificial. Honest and authentic, it conveys exactly its identity.
Palate
On the palate, it is clearly leaner and less marked by warmth than initially expected. Not cool climate by far, but the pome and stone fruit is crisp and clear in its fruit expression. The lush fruit is contrasted by a striking acidity that positively enlivens the mouthfeel again and again. It appears almost stony on the palate with a slightly salty character. With increasing oxygen, a discreet oriental note develops, reminiscent of saffron and curry. In the aftertaste, tarte tatin with this oriental touch reappears.
