Description

Yellow-green and gold in the glass this wine has intense, tropical aromas with notes of mango, pineapple and peach. On the palate it showcases very good volume, balance and freshness. Overal flavours are citric and mineral.

Grapes for this wine were harvested from two sites in Tupungato, Uco Valley: Alluvia Vineyard located in Gualtallary (1,350m above sea level) & Los Cerezos Vineyard, found on the Cordón del Plata mountain (1,000m above sea level). The soils on Alluvia are sandy loam, stony, and with a high calcareous content. Whilst at Los Cerezos they are loam with variable depth and a calcium carbonate layer. Both estates have warm days and cool nights, with an average annual rainfall of 280mm. These vienayrads, as all at At Doña Paula, have always been managed using sustainable agricultural practices.

In the winery the grapes see a moderate protective destemming and a crushing at room temperature before a soft pressing and fermentation, at low temperatures, in stainless steel tanks, to protect the primary aromas.

Food Pairing: Burrata cheese, baked vegetables and apples, cured ham and pesto. An excellent combination of flavors and colours.
