What a steal this wine is. Great aromatic intensity and rather expansive on the palate with a very persistent finish. More green, herbal qualities to this vintage, but well-rounded with fragrant white flowers, piercing peaches,
grapefruit pith and a hint of salinity. Nervy, high-acid, herbal and rather complex. An ideal accompaniment to just about any fish, and with enough savory and vegetal component to match well with challenging pairings such as asparagus (which I tried, and it was excellent).

2022. We really enjoyed this wine with our pan con tomate, bellota jamoń, and manchego.

Wow, this was VERY dry & razor sharp - aromatics really opened when it got up to cellar temp. Bright citrus infused minerals, rocks & shells, some florals - a lot of maritime influence tho I’m not sure where these vines are from. Densely packed mid palate, strong acidic backbone & impressive finish.

Jul 18th, 2024Very dry and not interesting, but very drinkable and elegant: a stone or minerals, green apple. It's a wine for a hot day.

Light silvery/gold color. Aromas of white flowers, peach, beeswax and herbal chamomile tea. Pallet is full of peach, lychee, tangerine, green apple, grapefruit and fresh herbs. Touches of minerals and saline on the finish. Waxy texture. Bright with medium plus acidity. Nice complexity.
