An innovative and delicious Argentine white blend.
- Criolla Blanca, part of the ancient Criolla family, an unruly 'bunch' of varietals that came to be as a result of the wild frolickings of Criolla Chica and Muscat d'Alexandria in centuries past, makes up 90% of this wine.
- The remaining 10% is is a mystifying blend of Viognier, Gewürztraminer and Semillon, which blended together is aged biologically under flor for two years (a la Sherry).
- This component is added as a kind of 'dosage' when making the final blend and it offers a jaw-dropping level of intrigue and complexity that almost defies description.
- A great match for tapas, or simply to enjoy on its own.
