The altitude vineyards, planted in this region between mountains and deep valleys in granitic soils originate wines of great character and elegance.

Delicate aromas with notes of wild fruit and dark pepper, it reveals a silky and well-balanced aftertaste. This is a great example of the fine wines from this region.
