Mechanical night harvest. Cold maceration of 4/5 hours. Aging on fine lees for approximately 3 months, depending on daily tastings.
Tasting notes:
Bright yellow straw colour, with green hints that reflect its youth.
Aromas of tropical fruits (pineapple) and citrus fruits first appear along with white fruits (apple) and herbs, such as boxwood and fennel.
Dry with an amazing balance of freshness and acidity. Good structure and body given by its fine lees’ aging. Long finish with a slightly bitter palate, typical of the variety.
Serving and Pairing:
Really good choice to pair with cheese, paella, pasta or fish.
Served at 6-7 ºC.
