TASTING NOTE: 50% Xarello, 30% Macabeo, 20% Parellada. A crisp and clean aroma of bright citrus and lime, with elegant brioche and hazelnut characters. The complex and refined palate is beautifully balanced with tropical fruit, candied lemon, zest and a hint of bitters that does not overpower the fruit. The lingering finish holds biscotti on the length. Score - 95 (Decanter World Wine Awards, 2016) |
