About Textura Wines Pretexto Blanco

Part cement and part stainless steel tanks are the keys to making Textura Wines Pretexto Blanco, a wine produced by Textura Wines in the D.O.C. Dão, specifically in the Serra da Estrela (in central Portugal).

In this area, where granitic soils abound, the winery owns more than 20 hectares of plots growing the area’s typical varieties like Encruzado, Bical, Gouveio, Malvasia Fina and Cerceal Branco. In fact, these grapes are used to make Textura Wines Pretexto Blanco. Cultivation is carried out in an artisan and manual way, taking great care of the environment, without using any type of fertiliser or chemical product. In this way, and thanks to decisions like this, Portuguese white wines are beginning to gain a better reputation and more appreciation around the rest of the world, leaving behind the bad reputation they once had.

As we have said, this new image is supported by their new philosophy, where they try to interfere with the wine as little as possible in the winery. Following a manual harvest, the Textura Wines Pretexto Blanco grapes are pressed and processed to obtain the must. This juice, which will later ferment, is left at a low temperature overnight so that the particles that can cause bitterness and unpleasant aromas will settle and fall to the bottom. This operation is known as “racking” and will last around 24 hours. Once the liquid is clean, it is placed in stainless steel and cement tanks, ready to ferment spontaneously with native yeasts. Finally, Textura Wines Pretexto Blanco will spend time on its lees in the same tanks (except for a small batch that remains in new French oak barrels).
