Fine, steely thread of acid carries quiet honeyed richness (from a very slight sugar lift), florals, lemon jube. Lovely perfumed lift in back half and a delicious, saliva-inducing snappy finish. Great balance. 40% Macabeo/30% Xarel.lo/20% Parellada. 12 months lees ageing. 15 g/l residual sugar. |

Literally, a classic European style. Generous flavour, but always crisp and tight. In no way sweet: Tasty AND refreshing at once. 80% Garnacha and 20% Monastrell, aged for 12-18 months. 13.1 g/l residual sugar. |
