The result is a rich, harmonious, and well-defined wine, where the territory emerges with refinement.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense straw-yellow color with golden reflections. The bouquet is delicate yet persistent, with floral sensations of orange blossom, magnolia, and broom, followed by citrus tones, candied fruit, dried fruit, and a slight spiciness. The aging contributes measured and well-integrated tertiary nuances. On the palate, it shows body, balance, and a good fresh push, which supports the structure and balances the softer, enveloping component. The finish is long, harmonious, and beautifully persistent.

Recommended pairings
