Production:

Under the guidance of Judit, the first woman in the family trained in oenology, a different profile has been created, a new vision of white Rioja, the Malvasía Valdelana. Harvested in the second week of September. Cold maceration, fermentation under controlled temperature for two weeks. It is aged for three months on its fine lees, protecting it from oxidation, adding volume and complexity.

• VISUAL PHASE: Pale yellow with greenish reflections.
• OLFACTORY PHASE: Very intense, tropical fruit, passion fruit, mango. Hints of stone fruit, apricot, peach, a mix of white fruits with hints of fennel.
• TASTING PHASE: Broad, silky, and fresh, with balanced acidity. Aftertaste with mineral complexity and white flowers.

Pairing: Pairs excellently with appetizers, assorted tapas, rice dishes, pasta, white meats, and fish.
