This blend is made with grapes from an over-30-year-old vineyard that is situated at an altitude of over 900m above sea level and the estate wants to keep the composition of the blend a secret. The varietals are harvested separately and the wine matures in part in amphorae, in part in pots, in part in barriques and in part in stainless steel. The beautiful result is a wine that blows your mind and excites your senses. The color is a bright straw-yellow and the complex aroma is a mixture of white fruit, peach and medlar with floral sensations that lean towards yellow but not excessively so. The tight mouthfeel has a broad and consistent progression with a sapidity that makes it an agile and very flavorful drop. The finish is very persistent. A wine that will improve with age.
