It is a wine with a high aromatic potential and personality. Unique in the nose with aromas of ripped pip fruits, glycemic and unctuous covered by a white flowers base. It is a revelation of Loureiro grape potential from O Rosal area. In the mouth it is a flower balsam, along with a long, lingering finish.
