One of the vineyard parcel used for this wine dates back to 1926. No wood.

12,5% ABV

Greeny straw appearance, brilliant. Salted peanuts, hay and apricot kernels/amaretto aromas are characteristics of the varietal. Smooth as silk with white fruits flavors and just a touch of sweetness which goes well with all that minerals and keeps the acidity in check as well. The finish is expressive, flowery with still some almondy nuttiness and a touch of caramel, and reminds me a little of a good cider. Wonderfully balanced and a tad sweeter than expected.

Paired with a ink-black cuttlefishes soup.

Cheers,

Alberto
