General

Tasting Notes:Over ripped Gewürztraminer clusters, which in our vineyards of Carmelo develops Botrytis Cinerea, have been individually hand-picked and kept under special storing conditions, to finally produce this unique and monumental wine. The Botrytis Cosecha Tardia / Late Harvest aroma: Excellent, very fruity, with peach, pineapple, maracuyá and roses. Taste: Nice structure and perfect balance between acidity and sugar, long, voluminous and complex.
