Versatile white
informal ally
A pale straw colour, with a golden, shiny rim. It shows an intense and suggestive nose, where in addition to stone fruit (white peach), citrus notes and a hint of green apple, the white flower that characterises it stands out. Its characteristic sweetness is perfectly integrated with an acidity that brings freshness and vivacity.
A wine that is easy to enjoy and perfect for a multitude of moments and events.
Prevailing climate
Atlantic, temperate, with distinct seasons.
Soils
Mostly clayey – calcareous, poor and not very fertile.
Vineyards and Yields
Selection of plots over 30 years old, from Rioja Alta, and from small “corros” or areas of old vines where white grape vines were planted intermingled.
Harvest
Harvest exclusively by hand at the end of September. Careful harvesting, in small trailers without berry breakage and without oxidation or undesired alterations.
Vinification
Short skin maceration of 2 to 4 hours before gentle pressing. Alcoholic fermentation at low temperature in stainless steel tanks. The wine is racked and kept on fine lees for a period of time to achieve its delicate volume. A gentle cold treatment is carried out in order to ensure stability, maintain the freshness and intensity of its aromas.
Total time in barrel
No barrel ageing.
Ageing in bottle
It does not require additional bottle ageing as it is marketed in its full youth to enjoy the freshness and liveliness of the first two years.
