Schitterende, droge witte wijn met een unieke, zilte signatuur en een complexe geur van amandelbloesem, kamille, limoen, grapefruit en toast. De smaak is vol en sappig met puur citrusfruit en een opwekkende frisheid.

10% dona branca aged in amphorae is blended with godello from barriques. From two parcels, one in Valtuille and the other in Cacabelos. Generous, with great harmony, joy and heart.

The 2023 La Vizcaína La del Vivo comes from Valtuille and Cacabelos, with some 10% Doña Blanca. There is a whiff of oak, which is noticeable in the texture.

It is creamy, medium-bodied, delicate and fresh. Balanced at 12.5%, it avoids weakness while highlighting textural richness from amphora aging and vibrant acidity.
Citrus, orchard fruit, iodine and a subtle bitterness. The medium- to full-bodied palate shows salinity and stone fruit with tension between flavor and length.

The 2023 Ultreia La Claudina is austere and mineral and smells of wet rocks. This was bottled without malolactic and has a very austere, stony mouthfeel, with restraint and elegance.

It is creamy, broad and lean-structured despite 13.5% alcohol. It delivers mid-weight richness, juicy freshness and a long, flavorful finish.
