About this Item
La Báscula is the result of a committed and shared vision of balance, authenticity and a love of all things Spanish. La Báscula, made by Englishman Ed Adams MW and South African winemaker Bruce Jack from Flagstone Winery. The wine range is all about balance; the balancing of scales (according to its original Spanish meaning) which reflects the balance between indigenous Spanish varieties and modern, South African winemaking. The label design represents the balance between New World dynamism and extremely old vineyards, while challenging a few stereotypes.
The philosophy is small volumes and really high quality; the lead varietals in all the wines are always native Spanish grapes, which is very important for typicity and integrity.
Made from barrel fermented Viura, 30% was blended from stainless steel which provides the freshness of fruit and the body of oak. Well balanced spice and a long finish.
