ALC. 14,5% BY VOL
A complex, rich and varied bouquet with earthy, fruity and floral opening notes that blend together with delicate hints of green pepper, laurel, eucalyptus and nutmeg. Subtle mineral and balsamic undertones give vibrancy and liveliness. Thick and silky on the palate, great expansion and density. A fresh and powerful wine, with tactile fragrance and tonicity. |

The generosity of nature has borne fruit, giving us the perfect grapes to make an expressive wine supported by a very pleasant structure. |
