Description
Lemon yellow, of great clarity and brilliance. We find the purity of Viura from old vines located on slopes facing the sun, where the ripeness achieved provides us with a mixture of exotic fruit aromas with hints of dried flower petals. The French oak barrels bring mineral touches and spices, creating a complex and elegant whole, which gives this wine a unique personality. Great intensity on the palate, glycerine with gentle sensations of sweetness magnificently balanced with the natural acidity that gives liveliness and freshness with a long finish.
