Description
This wine is named after the mountain of Puig Tomir, a part of the Sierra de Tramontana range that is so emblematic for the island. It’s one of the tallest mountains on the island with its 1,104 metres, but it’s virtually unknown to many.
Puig Tomir is an undiscovered jewel and you will fall in love it its charm immediately; as you will in this Sauvignon blanc that carries the name of the mountain. Our Sauvignon blanc vineyards are facing this mountain at the angle of 15° from the winery.
Tomir with attitude and nerve!
As our dear vines get older, so do we the team, and with that more experienced and better and making the wines exactly like we always imagined them.
This is true more than ever for this year’s Tomir. Some years it’s been tutti-frutti-yummy like a fruit-salad, other years more opulent and rich and now finally here with the 2023 we have managed in striking the perfect balance!
We always intended to perfectly balance the fresh, aromatic, vibrant and somewhat green “soul” of the Sauvignon Blanc with the more round, rich and tropical Viognier. Over the years that “play” has resulted in blends with quite varying % of the 2 varieties. Tomir has always been a tricky wine for us to get right, but this year it almost made itself.
As last year we did 2 different fermentations of the Sauvignon Blanc to have more pieces to use in the “puzzle” and they just happened to fit effortlessly well together with our this year, much more fresh and balanced Viognier in a 63/37% proportion.
How to best enjoy 2023 Tomir
Tasting note written by Marie
What to serve with Tomir
Scallops, pan seared in olive oil, golden on the outside and still raw in the middle. Served on a purée of carrot and topped with green dukkah, heaven!
If you feel like staying on Earth, though still with a divine taste in your mout, try a crispy salad with fennel, endive, carrot, cilantro, walnuts and boiled shrimp. Tossed in a vinaigrette of olive and walnut oil, orange juice and grated peel and a touch of honey.
When, where and with whom
This vintage of Tomir is a highly versatile wine and it’s both the perfect “terrace wine” served nicely chilled in the sunshine on it’s own or with some snacks. However; it also works really well with a wide range of foods, not only in light-weight versions. This vintage is broader and more complex and has considerable more power and versatility when it comes to food pairings.
