Quibia 2010 is made from a blend of 60% Premsal and 40% Callet (red grapes vinified in white), native grape varieties. Aging on its lees during four months in cement tanks. A wine that brings us the scents of the Mediterranean herbs and flowers that grow in the winery of ÀN Negra, located in Son Burguera, near Felanitx (Mallorca).
Tasting notes: Straw yellow color, greenish rim. On nose, intense, fruity, notes of Mediterranean herbs and citrus, hints of nuts and minerals. On palate, fresh, subtle, succulent, long, correct acidity. Lingering finish and fine structure.
What the critics say...
Robert Parker: 88 points(01/06/2011)
Poached pear, baked apple, and nutmeg inform the nose of this savory white. In the glass it displays plenty of flavor interest and excellent concentration. This nicely proportioned effort is an excellent value for drinking over the next 3 years.

Situated to the south-east of Mallorca, ÀN Negra winery produces its wines on the old country estate of Son Burguera close to the town of Felanitx. Current wine making is nothing more than a continuation of our ancestral activity and it is against this background that ÀN Negra was born. ... />The respect shown to the individual features of the soil and the cultivation of the indigenous varieties (manto negre, fogoneu, premsal and, above all, callet) has formed the basis of our philosophy in the way we approach our viticulture and this is reflected in the wine itself. Born of the unique symbiosis of the climate, the land and the indigenous varieties, our inimitable wines are honest and distinctive and challenge the current trend of producing impersonal wine. It is this premise, together with the aim of offering a product of the highest quality, that marks the day-to-day running of ÀN Negra.
