The white 2017 Blanco is one of the first wines from winemaker Jorge Navascues to see the light. It's a blend of Viura with some 10% Garnacha Blanca that was destemmed and put through a three-hour cold soak. Only half of the wine matured in new 400- and 500-liter oak barrels, and the other half was kept in stainless steel for ten months. The wine is quite fresh and fruit-driven, with waxy apples and some aromatic herbs, with some restrain and not really exuberant, with the oak in the background. The palate is very tasty, the flavors are well-defined, and the finish is dry and a bit salty. There is brightness and freshness, and I think it should evolve nicely in bottle. 14,000 bottles and some larger formats were filled in November 2018.
