Dido Blanc 2019

The 2019 Dido Blanc comes from a warmer year than 2018, and it was noticeable tasting the two vintages side by side. Other than that, the wine comes from the same vineyards, is a similar blend of Macabeo, Garnacha Blanca and Cartoixà (Xarello) and was produced in a similar fashion as the 2018—foudres, concrete and some barriques, where the wine also matured for 12 to 13 months. This is still very young and feels a bit reductive, but the wine will not be released until March and should recover from the bottling in these months. In situations like this, the palate is what can guide you, and the wine is a little rounder and more generous than the 2018 but still on the serious and austere side. 17,800 bottles produced. It was bottled in November 2020.
