About Missenyora

Missenyora is an organic, single-variety Macabeo white wine made by the L’Olivera cooperative in the D.O. Costers del Segre, in Catalonia.

L’Olivera is a social integration cooperative located in Vallbona de les Monges, a municipality in Lleida, Catalonia, home to the most important female monastery of the Cistercian Order, Santa Maria de Vallbona. Missenyora is the name given to the abbesses and this wine is also a tribute to an ancient tradition of making a wine known as vi bullit, which has a subtle sweet touch.

To make Missenyora, the grape bunches are harvested manually and pressed whole with the stalks. The must ferments at a controlled temperature in American and French oak barrels, at 80% and 20% respectively. There is never more than 15% new wood in order to respect the character of the variety. The wine ages on its lees for three to four months. During this time, it is stirred weekly to enhance its volume on the palate.

The wine is tested and before being bottled, a minimal amount of concentrated grape must is added, depending on how it tastes, which gives the wine a subtle sweet taste and a particular personality.

L’Olivera works to promote the social integration of underprivileged groups, who participate in every part of the production process. This same   character can be found in each and every one of the wines and oils that are made by the cooperative, with the aim of reflecting an identity and contributing to a better future.

2018

Missenyora 2018 is an intense and complex white wine that has hints of white and stone fruits like peaches, lactic notes and a spicy white pepper note on the nose. On the palate it is fresh and flavoursome, with good persistence and a balanced acidity.
2012 In the mouth, it is unctuous, fresh and fruity. It has a well-integrated acidity which together with subtle residual sugar make a white wine with a sweet, pleasant and agile mid-palate. Juicy and persistent finish with reminiscences of fine toasted aromas.

Intense straw yellow colour with golden reflections. Clean and bright wine with a beautiful tear.

Delicate and defined nose with a high intensity. White and yellow fruit with pit along with intense floral aromas stand out over slight toasted notes and a subtle minerality.
2011 Fresh, rich and fruity on the palate. A well-integrated acidity and light residual sugars make this white wine agile, smooth and tasty on the palate. Juicy and persistent finish, with fine toasted aromas.

Intense straw yellow colour with golden reflections. Clean and bright with pretty tears on the glass.

Good intensity, delicate and defined. White and yellow stone fruit and intense floral aromas prevail. Slightly toasted notes and subtle mineral overtones complete the set.
2009 Very fresh attack, with a slightly creamy and tasty mid palate, full of ripe fruit and floral notes. Very good acidity. Long and greedy finish with hints of citrus.

Pale straw yellow. Bright and clean.

Intense and complex aromas typical of the variety that, together with the notes provided by the oak, result in an elegant white wine. The white flowers and the notes of fruit (ripe, tropical and citrus) emerge with notes of butter and pastry.
2008 Harmonious combination of wood with varietal notes. Well-balanced acidity.

Bright straw yellow.

Clean aromas, with light floral tones of fruit, orange peel, tropical fruit. Light presence of wood and smoked.
