Tarima ICE, a white wine made to be enjoyed well chilled or over ice
Tarima ICE is a white wine made from Macabeo grapes, offering a fresh and modern way to enjoy wine. Crisp, aromatic and highly expressive, it has been specifically crafted to be served well chilled or even over ice, while retaining its full character thanks to a winemaking process focused on preserving the grape's natural freshness.
Produced from vineyards in Pinoso, in the inland region of Alicante, this wine reflects the Mediterranean character of the area and the ability of the Macabeo variety to produce light, balanced and wonderfully refreshing wines.
At Licorea, we believe that Tarima ICE is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a modern, refreshing white wine that is perfect for the warmer months of the year.
High-altitude vineyards in inland Alicante
The grapes come from vineyards located around Pinoso, at elevations between 650 and 700 metres above sea level. The marked difference between daytime and night-time temperatures promotes balanced ripening while preserving excellent natural acidity.
The area's characteristic limestone soils contribute to the balanced growth of the Macabeo vines and help express the wine's distinctive Mediterranean character.
The vineyards, around ten years old, offer an excellent balance between yield and quality, producing fresh, intensely aromatic fruit.
Early harvesting to preserve freshness
The harvest takes place during August, earlier than the traditional harvest period, in order to preserve the grapes' natural acidity.
This decision results in a livelier wine with an especially fresh profile and remarkable aromatic intensity.
Early harvesting is one of the key elements that allows this wine to retain its expression even when served over ice.
Careful winemaking to preserve the full expression of Macabeo
Tarima ICE ferments in stainless steel tanks under strict temperature control at approximately 14°C.
Low-temperature fermentation helps preserve the variety's most delicate aromas while maintaining the wine's characteristic freshness.
The must is handled with exceptional care to produce a pure and expressive profile. The process also preserves a light natural spritz, adding an extra sensation of freshness on the palate.
Within our selection of Mediterranean white wines, Tarima ICE stands out for its modern, easy-going and exceptionally refreshing style.
