tasting notes

It presents itself in the glass with a straw yellow color full of light that prepares for the moment when the nose pervades the senses with wide fruity hints in which pineapple, green apple, drupe and green melon emerge. The olfactory sensations from the first moment strike for the complexity in which the fruit knows how to leave room for mineral notes and a slight memory of honey. On the palate it presents itself with great elegance, complete in every aspect with its agile body, great freshness and, after a first moment in which we find the fruit, it leaves room for spices, above all white pepper, which plays on a mineral base of absolute purity. Very long persistence.

aging capacity

Wine with excellent evolutionary capabilities.
