She is also depicted on the label. This is a 100% Godello with lots of sérieux, from the village of Pieros. The vineyards are located at 500 m altitude and consist mainly of sandy soils with main components of lime and clay.

Trial analysis
Beautiful color with sparkle. In the nose a complex blend of citrus, white pome fruit such as apricot and spicy notes of élevage such as toasted sunflower seeds and light manzanilla. Aromas that again refer to the origin of the maker (Cadiz). On the palate complex and mineral with nice length.
