Intense fruit cocktail, with white peach and pineapple dominating with warm, soft floral and vanilla-like tones. The palate has the same intense fruits but with a lovely freshness that keeps the wine feeling youthful and lively. Quite full bodied and with good length.

Description

Grapes for this wine come from a vineyard planted in 1998, trained along a low vertical trellis, on land that overlooks the Duero river. The vineyard extends over an area of 4 hectares, and its most important feature is its soil: sand and pebbles on top of a bed of limestone.

Grapes are placed in a stainless steel tank and left to macerate on skins for 20 to 24 hours before being pressed. The must is racked off its solids and the clarified liquid fermented again in stainless steel at 16 degrees. Fermentation lasts about 10 days and then left to rest on its lees. Regular battonage keeps the lees in suspension and helps to build mouthfeel and complexity in its flavours.

The colour is a deep cadmium yellow. The aromas are intense fruit cocktail, with white peach and pineapple dominating with warm, soft floral and vanilla-like tones. The palate has the same intense fruits but with a lovely freshness that keeps the wine feeling youthful and lively. Quite full bodied and with good length. Although it is very dry, the intense fruits give a sensation of sweetness. Lovely long finish. 13% alc. <2 g/l residual sugar (very dry).
