Tasting notes
It displays floral and citrus aromas that combine with hints of fresh grass, white fruits and orange. In the mouth, floral, fresh and fruity flavors are in perfect balance with the unctuousness of a successful aging in barrels.
Pair with fish, rabbit, Asian food and spicy and hot sauces.

Vinification
Sauvignon Blanc and Semill6n: Destemmed. Macerated in the press with dry ice for 4 hours (before pressing), pressing, fining for 24 hours. The Semill6n was devatted to stainless steel tanks and the Sauvignon Blanc to barrels. Fermented with natural yeasts.
Torrontes: Destemmed. No maceration during pressing. Selected yeasts. Fermented in barrels. Once fermentation had finished, the wine was kept on lees for two months to improve the mouthfeel. Final blending and racking to oak barrels for four more months.
