Enology

Grapes are grown on clay and limestone soils in San Vicente de la Sonsierra. The wine is fermented using a carefully managed process: 50% in French oak barrels and 50% in stainless steel vats, creating a harmonious blend of freshness and subtle oak character.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Clean, brilliant pale golden hue; visually inviting.

• Aroma: Rich aromas of white pear, green apple, and citrus, complemented by subtle bread and lees notes.

• Palate: Fresh fruit flavors and citrus zest carry through, with balanced acidity and a clean, lingering finish.

Food Pairing

Pairs elegantly with shellfish (especially oysters and other crustaceans), lean fish, appetizers, pasta, risotto, vegetarian dishes, and tapas — thanks to its bright fruitiness and balanced structure.
