wine culture
Optimal serving temperature of 10ºC; an ice bucket is advised in summer to keep a drinking temperature of 12-14ºC. The Bordeaux white wine glass is a fine choice for tasting, even for a wine-tasting official event.
The wine should be stored between 12-15ºC, in a dark space, free from smells, avoiding excessive dryness or humidity (around 70%). The bottles can be kept in standing position but not for more that 2 years, in that case they should be stored horizontally.
Matching: Fish, raw and boiled seafood, rice, white meats and red (with Carballal Cepas Vellas), cheese, foie gras… also as aperitif.
In Bodegas Carballal we have also published the book “El Arte de Catar Vino” (The Art of Wine-Tasting) with the aim of doing our bit for everything that wine enjoyment and culture represent.
