Harvest: Manual harvest of the grapes in small perforated boxes, gently unloaded on the vibrating table that allows to dose the grapes evenly, facilitating the employees who will perform the manual selection in the sorting table.

Flavour: The mouthfeel is soft and elegant, supported by an extraordinary freshness that extends over a very pleasing finish.


Service: Open at least an hour before pouring and serve at 18°C (64,4°F), in a large crystal glass
