Paulo Coutinho, Enólogo, tasting note published in May 27th 2023
This delicious wine reveals an attractive floral and fruity exuberance, with fresh and citrus aromas, reminiscent of orange blossom, orange peel and rose. In the mouth, it shows strong minerality and the same exuberance found in the nose, in a lively, elegant and fresh style. It is the ideal partner for sushi, seafood and salads.
The grapes were harvested into 25 kg boxes, after a careful selection for their best state of health, and sent to the winemaking centre where they were entirely destemmed. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks for 9 days in a granite press of 7 tons, with foot treading and gentle pumping over for leaching of the cap and extraction of phenolic and aromatic compounds. Maceration with temperature control at 18-20ºC. It is kept in stainless steel vats with the best conditions to maintain its freshness
