PULËZ

Albanian White Wine

White wine produced from the Pulëz grape variety located in Berat, harvested in the village of Roshnik, considered its most ancient area of origin. The vineyard is located in the middle of the forest, where wild boars eat these grapes as their favorite food. It is a grapevine that has grown naturally on trees for a long time before villagers of the area started cultivating it. This wine appears with a light golden color, with matured white fruity flavors and a great structure for aging. It goes well with seafood and pasta dishes.

PULËZ WINE

Vineyard

Our vineyards are located in Rroshnik, near the historic city of Berat, situated in the hilly region of Southern Albania. This serene wine region boasts an ideal vineyard altitude, ranging between 300 to 400 meters. The terroir consistency is made of primarily black soil.

Climate conditions

The climate in the vineyard location aligns with the characteristics of a Mediterranean climate. Summers bring warmth and dryness, with average temperatures ranging from 25°C to 30°C. Winters are mild, offering a period of dormancy for the vines. The region receives moderate rainfall throughout the year, providing the necessary hydration for vine cultivation.

Harvesting

Our harvesting and winemaking process is carefully executed to ensure the production of exceptional wines. The harvest takes place from 10th to 25th September when the grapes reach their optimal maturity. Our dedicated team handpicks the grapes from old vines that are gracefully climbing on trees, preserving their unique character and taste.

Winemaking:

At the winery, the grapes undergo a meticulous winemaking process. Cryo maceration is employed for 48 hours, followed by soft pressing to extract the juice gently. The juice then undergoes natural precipitation in stainless steel tanks. Cold controlled fermentation takes place over a period of 12-15 days, allowing for the development of delicate flavors.
