WILD FERMENTED VERDEJO PIQUERAS Bright golden colour. Complex and intense nose with exotic fruit, mineral notes
and a subtle hint of oak. Creamy and elegant on the palate, with excellent
natural acidity. Balanced and persistent finish.

Single organic vineyard located at 900 meters above sea level. Sandy soils
with a high saline component, resulting from ancient marine influence, poor in
nutrients and with low rainfall

Verdejo grapes are carefully selected and harvested at night at optimal
ripeness. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled
temperature using indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged for 2–3 months in
fine-grain, light-toast French Allier oak barrels (300 L), followed by 2 months
on fine lees in small stainless steel tanks with periodic bâtonnage to enhance
mouthfeel and volume. After gentle filtration, the wine is bottled.
