As much as I enjoyed it, it lacked the usual volume. More delicate with less oxidation. Citrus, marmalade, white flowers, smoke, and caramel. Almost full-bodied, sophisticated, mineral, fresh with a long and fascinating aftertaste. Truly generous wine.

Meh, up to expectations. I mean, up to high expectations. It’s funny to see the reaction of people tasting it blindly. Almost everyone was stunned. Sophisticated bouquet: mushrooms, subtle Jerez notes, citrus, fruits, butter, and honey. Almost perfectly balanced, voluminous, but delicate at the same time. If tomorrow you need to move to a monastery and abandon everything, this wine is a good farewell drink and a bridge to eternity.

There is a problem with this wine. Expectations are rightfully high and the wine conscientiously delivers. Typical sophisticated white Tondonia with a good balance between fruits and mouldy stuff. So together with fruits and citrus, this wine brings more friends like Jerez, mushrooms, honey and butter. Almost perfectly balanced, voluminous, fresh and simply delicious.
