Tasting Notes:

Deep straw coloured with steely and greenish tones. On the nose it is clean and intense, complex with aromas typical of the varietals; fresh fruit, peach and apricot with predominance of tropical fruits.
Citrus notes come from the Verdejo and the addition of a small amount of Moscatel adds interest & complexity with floral notes along with touches of aromatic herbs.
On the palate it is full, well-structured, with a silky, well-balanced entrance. Pleasantly dry, very flavorful, fresh, unctuous and full. Very, very moreish.
