The winess remain in the the tank, contact with their lees for 3 months, to preserve varietal aromas and acquire greater harmony and a buttery texture.
Pale-yellow with green hues; clean and bright. Intense nose driven by the Tempranillo Blanco. Predominating white fruit, green apples and stone fruit, with floral hints and citrus notes. Spectacular mouth, with good initial volume and an acidity that makes it enticing all along.
