Who was going to tell us that from the combination between Chardonnay and Riesling grapes we were going to get such a fresh and smooth wine. Ideal to cool down at any time of the day.

ELABORATION
Manual collection in boxes of 12 Kg and field selection. Delicate destemming and second selection of the grapes. Light pressing under 1 Kg of pressure and during all this process inerting of CO2 gas to preserve the variety of aromas and the delicate compounds of the grape from oxidation. Static settling in isothermal tanks at 24-48 h and fermented in small volume stainless steel tanks. Temperature control during the whole process. Rest phase from 4 to 6 months on fine lees.
TASTING
Clean and bright, pale straw coloured, with small greenish iridescences.
Medium to high intensity. Entrance with balsamic aromas and notions of white fruits, like a ripe melon. Touches of dry grass, fennel and a slight touch of citric fruits. certain nuances of hard-shell fruits appear.
Fresh and voluminous entrance with a certain tanicity and a glyceric final, medium acidity. fresh and pleasant finish, in retro nasal, again, the aromas of dry grass and fennel.
