From a vineyard in Salnes; vinified in tank with minimal sulfur. The wine spends a few months on the lees before bottling, which gives a fuller body and richer texture. This is one of the great dry white wines: try this with shellfish, or with crusty bread and a wedge of aged Manchego.

Limpid gold. Vibrant, mineral-accented orchard and citrus fruit and floral qualities on the incisive, mineral-accented nose. Taut and sharply focused, offering zesty lemon pith, pear skin and bitter quinine flavors that deepen through the midpalate. Shows impressive definition and solid mineral thrust on the long, nervy finish, which leaves a spicy ginger note behind.
