Drinking Window: 2023 - 2025
A delightfully original blend (Turruntés and Maturana Blanca), which makes for a fine original white. Don't expect bold aromatics – Turruntés has nothing to do with Argentina's scented Torrontés. The wine is medium bodied, with a fine citrus undertone and notes of herbs. Fermented in stainless steel and then aged in 500-litre French oak and egg-shaped polymer tanks.
