Vinification: Wine of a beautiful vintage with lots of sun at the time of grape ripening, which is picked in the end of September. A short maceration of grape mash in a stainless steel vessel. A three-month maturation in an acacia barrel contributed its hue to the color, smell and taste. Two month-long wine ageing on lees and with stirring until the first settling of the wine into stainless-steel barrels.

Characteristics: Gentle yellow color with green hues. The aromas of the wine are fresh and fruity, we notice tropical fruits and citrus as well as shades of elderflower. The fruitiness of the scents is also repeated in the taste. The wine is harmonious and full.
