We've managed to get hold of a few bottles of this cult white wine, something you rarely see on lists. Widely considered to be Spain's greatest unoaked white wine, it's a tiny production from a 1.2 hectare plot of old vines. It's really very complex - crisp and fresh yet with underlying weight and almost an oiliness to the wine (think Rhone whites). Very minerally with notes of flowers, white stone fruit, citrus, honey and a hint of Asian spice. It manages to be both light and weighty at the same time - sounds odd but that's what I wrote when I tasted it. Some cream on the palate from lees ageing which adds texture, I think this will develop wonderfully despite not having massively high acidity. Superb.
