Monovarietal Verdejo wine, a versatile grape variety, of great character and personality, which is very well adapted to the extreme conditions of the area, which allows the elaboration of fresh white wines or fermented in barrel. Once the alcoholic fermentation is finished, the wine remains in contact with the lees in stainless steel tank between 1 and 2 months. The lees that are deposited at the bottom of the tank are moved weekly with nitrogen (batonnage).

On the palate has a clear and fresh feeling, with a typical persistent ending of the variety resulting from long and pleasant swallow. All in all, it is shown as a fresh and balanced wine.
This wine pairs well with fish, seafood, ham, pasta, chicken and meat cold.
