An intense varietal wine with notes of scented apple, butter, hazelnut, together with light smoked wood. Buttery and creamy, with an Atlantic freshness giving it a crisp flavour.

Enology
The wide slopes at the foot of Serra de Montejunto give it excellent exposure to the sun and its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean gives it a natural acidity.
Winemaking: 50% of the batch fermented in new and used French oak barrels for 6 months. The remainder fermented in stainless steel vats. Soil: The soils are clayey in nature, with some clay sandy stains and good drainage.
