"Resurrected" native to Spain Airén grape made with extensive skin contact, and aged 2 years in American oak. Beautiful dried orange peel, dried pineapple, tropical fruit, blanched almond, dried dill, sage, vanilla bean, baking spice. Killer with Spanish Tapas or Asian dishes like orange chicken stir fry. North African dishes too! If your a sherry fan this is for you!

Mar 6th, 2017Absolutely stunning, this is a killer wine if you are a fan of orange wines, it's very Jura-esque, with saline, beeswax, dried citrus fruit, and weighty mouthfeel. Finishes with blanched almonds, a manzanilla-like salinity and the distinct aftertaste of an aged Vin Jaune! Love it...

En nariz fenomenal, presencia de tostado de la barrica en nariz canela, vainilla y manzana. En boca de entrada un poco reducido, después de aireación largo , y con un final muy rico.

100% Airén aged 24 months on American oak. Medium gold, with aromas of oak, straw, baked apple, and beeswax. Golden apple, slate, and more beeswax flavors, with medium-plus body, a silky texture and a long, dry, mineral finish. Balanced and cellar-worthy. Very much like a Viña Gravonia, but without the oxidative note. Give it time to open up, or better yet, decant, as recommended on the label. Great with fish, but this has enough stuffing to hold its own with heartier dishes like chicken and mushrooms, etc.

Aromatic and buttery however the lack of acidity was not it for me
