    Description

    Plithure Trevllazer from Balaj winery is a natural white wine made 100% from Shesh i Bardhe grapes, an indigenous grape from the Vlora region, in southern Albania. This wine embodies the authenticity of the Albanian terroir, with a perfect balance between tradition and innovation.

    The vineyards, cultivated in espalier, are located on tuff soils of marine origin, rich in limestone, ideal for producing wines of great character. The plants, with an average age of 15 years, contribute to the quality and complexity of the final product.

    Winemaking occurs naturally, with spontaneous fermentation using indigenous yeasts and without temperature control. The contact with the skins lasts 35 days in steel, enhancing the varietal characteristics of the grapes. The wine matures for 12 months sur lie in steel, followed by a 3-month refinement in the bottle, reaching a harmonious balance and a distinctive character.

    With an alcohol content of 13.5%, Plithure is an unfiltered wine, without fining and free of added sulphites, maintaining its natural purity. On the palate it offers an enveloping structure and a pleasant freshness, with complex aromas that reflect its unique terroir.

    Plithure is the ideal accompaniment for red meats and semi-mature cheeses, but it also lends itself to being tasted alone to fully appreciate its nuances. The recommended serving temperature is between 13-14°C.

    This wine represents an authentic expression of the Albanian winemaking tradition and the talent of the Balaj winery.
