white raisin and honey on the palate with hints of citrus rind and a backbone of acidity cutting through the sappy intensity

Oak is well-integrated resulting in an overall smooth and velvety mouthfeel

focused and streamlined

coming from the volcanic soils

Aromatically think freshly-baked Danish apple pastry with lemon zest

a field blend harvested and fermented together

Or at any other occasion really

in the east of the region near Burgos

This wine is lively with good length and shows remarkable balance

The result is exceptionally complex and driven wine

The wine is fermented in concrete tanks and then aged for a year in old French barriques to allow the blend to mature

Protected by silence and darkness
