This lovely white from the surrounding villages of Serrada and Rueda is fresh, aromatic and fine, with notes of tropical fruit, melon and mineral nuances. Round and crisp on the palate, where tropical fruit and citrus notes dominate, with well-balanced acidity, depth and volume, and a full, persistent finish... It' s all there!
