Tasting Notes
Lots of creativity and innovation have gone into this wine (90% Viura, 6% Malvasia, 4% Garnacha), with amazing results. Part orange wine, part 19th-century winemaking, in large foudres, with careful barrel ageing. Development is already great, but it requires bottle ageing. Starts powerfully, becoming stylish and understated with enticing aromatics on the finish. One to follow, absolutely.
