Drinking Window: 2019 - 2022
A gorgeous, textural wine with a pale copper hue and aromas of blood orange, mandarin and herbal bitters. Old bush-vine Garnacha Blanca grapes are macerated on skins for four months in 600-litre barrels, giving a ripe and nutty palate of tart peach, ripe apples and orange zest, with perky acidity and grippy fruit tannins.
