- A delicious sweet wine, with notes of lychee, candied apricot and pear, tropical pineapple complemented by honey undertones. Rich, smooth and sweet on the palate, beautifully balanced by freshness and elegance.
The grape clusters were hand-picked at optimum maturity. The grapes were transported in 20-kilogram boxes to retain the high quality of the fruit; they were then destemmed and crushed. Pre-fermentation maceration took place at low temperatures of approximately 13°C, lasting four to six hours. The grapes were pressed and left to settle for 72 hours, followed by fermentation in stainless steel vats for four weeks at 8 to 10°C. This traditional style of winemaking results in a concentration of residual sugar of 110 grams per litre.

Winery | The vineyard provides naturally healthy conditions due to its altitude, exposure to the sun, and microclimate, and it enables gentle methods of cultivation to be employed in order to maintain a healthy vineyard. The vines are planted in alluvial, sandy soils. Excessive buds and leaves are removed in the spring to aerate the strains and increase the leaf surface area exposed to the sun. Debudding reduces the production of berries and concentrates the flavours and aromas in those remaining. The living soils, where microbial life creates organic soil enrichment, nourish the vines. |
