The wine region of Ta Qali
Maltese wine region (central plateau, drained limestone soils under Mediterranean sun), millennial tradition in renaissance. Indigenous Ġellewża: round and fruity red with ripe red fruits, cherry, plum and spiced-Mediterranean touch, supple tannins. Indigenous Ġirgentina: fresh and thirst-quenching white with white fruits, flowers, citrus and saline-iodine note. Maltese authenticity under DOK since 2007.
The wine region of Malta
Mediterranean archipelago south of Sicily (DOK Malta and Gozo), limestone soils, dry windy climate. Two rare indigenous signatures. Girgentina in light, fresh whites (green apple, citrus, white flowers, almond, saline touch), often blended with Chardonnay. Ġellewża in round, fruity reds (cherry, raspberry, plum, spice), supple tannins — made into sparkling rosés or blended with Syrah/Cabernet.
The word of the wine: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
