Barco Del Corneta La Sillería
Grape varieties: Verdejo.
Vinification: Hand-picked, selected and spontaneously fermented in 500-litre barrels.
Aging: 12 months on fine lees in barrels and 4 months in stainless steel.
Colour: Lemon yellow.
Aroma: Vibrant notes of white flowers, pollen and citrus fruits, evolving into hints of dried herbs and a striking flintiness. It is an austere and elegant bouquet, reflecting the high-altitude terroir.
Flavour: In the mouth, the magic continues with an unctuous, chalky texture that fills the palate without weight, supported by vibrant, saline acidity. The finish is long, dry and persistently mineral, demonstrating enormous ageing potential.
