Nose

It has expressive aromas of white flowers – such as jasmine – as well as citrus notes.

Palate

In the mouth, it is fresh and mineral, with good acidity. Its complex and delicate character makes it very attractive.

Growing Conditions

The Uco Valley climate presents warm days and cool nights, with an average temperature variation of 12.5 °C (54.5 °F) and an average annual rainfall of 280 mm (11 in). The vines yield 10 tons per hectare, and they are grown in espaliers, using snow-melt water and drip irrigation systems.

Harvest

The grapes are hand-picked during the day time, the first week of March. A very careful, protective destemming and pressing process is carried out. Fermentation takes place at low temperatures, between 12 and 15 °C(53.6 – 59 °F), in stainless steel tanks, to preserve the primary aromas.

Winemaking

Appearance
