- A full-flavoured and floral wine with refreshing notes of vanilla cone, stone fruits and pineapple, zesty on the finish. It is a highly aromatic wine showing zesty citrus aromas, ripe stone fruits, a mineral sensation, and a hint of white pepper. Dry with a refreshingly crisp palate of pineapple, tropical fruits, and a delicious, dry, citrus finish.
The grapes underwent an eight-hour cold maceration before a temperature-controlled fermentation in 100% stainless steel tanks. The wine was fermented with natural yeast strains and held on its fine lees for four months, adding extra weight and texture to the final wine. It was then cold-stabilised to preserve freshness before being filtered and bottled.

Winery | Planted in the early 1980s, the vineyard is one of the oldest in Monterrei, encompassing 10 hectares planted with the white grape Godello and the red grape Mencia. The vineyard soils are made up of sand with quartz, which reflects and magnifies the sun's rays, resulting in ripe, concentrated fruit. With good drainage, the high sand content means it is resistant to phylloxera. The vineyard benefits from a high average of sunny days and is the driest appellation in Galicia. Situated at an altitude of 400 to 500 metres above sea level, the warm growing period is tempered by cold autumnal weather due to the cooling influence of the Atlantic. |
