Inspired by Bordeaux blends, Karim Mussi combines Semillon from La Consulta with Sauvignon Blanc from Los Chacayes, which he then ferments in barrels and ages on lees for over a year, to create a fragrant, floral white with a nose of citrus and white fruit along with notes of honey and spice. In the mouth it flows well, with good balance, taut acidity and a full flavour. A white with excellent cellar potential.
