Fuenteseca Cosecha 'Huerta Las Antenas' Blanco 2018, a masterpiece from NOM 1146 in Tequileña, Tequila, Jalisco, reflects the meticulous production details and expertise of Master Distiller Enrique Fonseca. The agave, of the Tequilana Weber variety, hails from the Single Estate of Michoacán in the Jalisco region, specifically Los Valles. The cooking process involves an autoclave with low pressure, and extraction utilizes both a Roller Mill and Screw Mill. The deep well water source, fermentation in stainless steel tanks without fibers, and 2x distillation in copper pot stills contribute to the exceptional quality. With an ABV of 44.8% (89.6-proof), this blanco is rested for two years in stainless steel, with no additives. The over-ripe single terroir agaves, grown in the chalky, calcium-carbonate-rich soils of Vista Hermosa Michoacán at an altitude of 5,000 feet, create a bold minerality with bright citrus notes and a consistently creamy cooked agave flavor. This expression, Verified Additive Free by Tequila Matchmaker, is a collector's treasure, encapsulating the essence of each Fuenteseca release. The tasting notes reveal an enticing aroma of cooked agave, basil, tarragon, and orange peel, a palate boasting bold minerality, floral notes, and preserved Meyer lemon citrus, all balanced with a light salinity. The full-bodied and lingering finish is both sweet and citrusy. Fuenteseca Cosecha 'Huerta Las Antenas' Blanco 2018 is a testament to the artistry and passion behind every bottle produced at NOM 1146.
