The Never Too Late line is one of Cris Vanyó's freest and most experimental projects. Under this label wild micro-vinifications of Tardana —a native, very late-ripening white grape, resistant and with excellent natural acidity— are made in Carrícola. Bunch-by-bunch hand harvest, spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts in small stainless-steel tanks. Very clean rest on lees and manual bottling in minuscule quantities. No additives, no commercial yeasts, zero added sulphites, unfined and unfiltered.

Acidity

Lively pale yellow with greenish reflections. Nose of tart apple, ripe pear, intense citrus and a touch of wild fennel. Electric, tense, refreshing palate: a vertical, vibrant acidity that dominates the palate. Low alcohol, maximum lightness and Mediterranean nerve. A radical garage wine that invites you to have another.
