After aeration it shows aromas of chamomile, fennel, fresh grass and resin; followed by notes of green apple and citrus and bergamot peel.
Taste:
Fibrous and crisp texture. The palate reveals a memory of white-flower infusion with notes of citrus rind and a saline, fresh sensation that spreads across the palate. Nice textural sensations thanks to the skins and lees, that combined yield a fantastic balance between a briny-like style and a traditional white.

Vinification, winemaker's own words
Soils:
Chalk, Gravel, Sand
Terroir:
Gypsum-rich soils, thanks to our proximity to La Serra Llarga. Gypsum is intercallated with pebbles and sands that were sedimented by the Noguera Ribagorçana Riber. Despite being some 200km away from the seaside, our climate is Continental, as there is a whole mountain range stopping the inflence from the Mediterranean to reach us. This together provides freshness, salinity and minerality to the wines. This wine is a single Plot Wine from our Vinya Nuria Estate, the closest one to the river. .
