Light lemon-yellow with beautiful brilliance. Pleasant nose combining citrus fruits, blackcurrant bud and a mineral touch. Beautiful aromatic intensity, touches of tropical fruits and spices and harmonious freshness. Delicious.
After crushing, the must is left for maceration for 6 to 8 hours at low temperature to achieve the maximum expression of aromas. The fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks at 14-16º C. The wine making process includes careful handling at every stage.
