Lady B 2017 comes from one of Yecla's highest parcels. A wine with beautiful substance and a ridiculously low price for this quality, its true value lies in its beautiful intensity of fruit and its balance between fine tannins and acidity bringing freshness. A clean, intense and tasty wine.

Too bad, the fruit is there but spoiled by too much body.
