Nose

The nose is intense, complex and fine, expressing aromas of white, citrus and exotic fruits and extremely mellow woody scents.

Palate

On the palate, the mouth is full, the wine is round, fleshy and dense. It has a beautiful structure balanced by the acidity which gives it great freshness and sapid savor. The finish is long and very aromatic. The oak is very well integrated unmasking the fruity palette. This wine combines perfectly roundness, fat and acidity.

Growing Conditions

2019 has been a very hot year. The mild winter temperatures let to an early bud break. Flowering took place in early June in cool and humid conditions. Then summer saw two heat waves favoring a strong water deficit which allowed the vegetative growth to stop and helped the ripening of the grapes. Thanks to cool summer nights and great weather in September, the grapes in perfect sanitary condition combined both the aromatic and the acidity expected.
