Bright lemon color with stone and tropical fruit aromas and floral citrus scents. On the palate flavors of pear, apples and peaches with lime citrus zest and notes of chalky salinity. Well balanced with pleasant lively acidity, long finish ending with mineral, citrus and wet stone nuances. Very nice!

This wine has a rich yellow-green tint. On the nose I thought I smelled some oak, but I was mistaken. It’s all steel. There is an overriding salinity that mutes the floral, apricot and citrus aspects a bit. The palate carries that salinity as well. That, plus a racy acidity, makes me want some oysters with it.

Pretty good. Nice aromas of lemongrass and pomelo. It’s quite crisp with nice acid and soft minerality. Some lemon peel.

Beautiful crisp, clean Spanish white. Not lacking in depth.

Crisp, acidic. Just what one would expect from this Spanish region.
