Bright pale yellow, with greenish reflections. Intense and fresh, with floral and fruity notes: white pear, apple and citrus fruits. Juicy, tasty and harmoniously acidic. Fresh and pleasing, with a good persistence.

Harvested by hand, during the second half of September. A gentle pressing and 3-hour skin maceration to achieve a high aroma intensity. A small part of the wine ferments in French oak barrels. The rest in stainless steel vats under temperature control in order to enhance its aromas and freshness. Part of it is kept in French oak barrels prior to its bottling.
Food Pairing: Green and fruit salads. All kind of fish: smoked, fried, baked... Very specially, grilled fish. Steamed shellfish. Paella, seafood pasta and sushi. It is ideal by the glass, as aperitif.
