Llunari is a crisp wine, with an intense golden colour and orange reflections. Great aromatic intensity, with hints of quince and orange peel zest. Fennel and almond finish. In the mouth it has a fresh entrance and an enveloping texture. Long aftertaste reminiscent of raw almonds.

Manual harvest in boxes of 18 kg. Once in the cellar, the grapes are destemmed and crushed and racked to a concrete tank to cool the must with the skins at 5 – 8ºC until the start of alcoholic fermentation. The must/wine spends a total of 20 days in contact with the skins before pressing and transferring the wine to 3 amphorae of 600 L, where the wine will rest for 5 months.
Pairing Proposal: It goes very well with traditional pickled dishes, such as sardines or chicken. Also ideal with sea nettles in batter or with a sea bass ceviche.
