Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
An attractive straw color, with hints of green in the rim. Clean and brilliant. The nose is very expressive and harmonious. Fine notes of white fruit (green apples, pear) and lemony aromas. Hints of herbs (basil) and flower blossom base notes. Surprising aromatic intensity. The palate is clean and textured. Seductive and exotic notes of pineapple and mango intermingle with refreshing citrus flavors, amplified by minerally accents. Silky, but full-bodied, with a long and lingering finish. Round and very tasty.
Paco & Lola make a divine duo with sushi, pastas, fish, rice dishes, white meats, seafood, fish and shellfish stews.

Decanter
Peachy and stony, with warmth, ripeness and lovely, savoury greengage fruit on the mid palate which has a pristine feel. Final taste is of roasted lemons and herbs, with a stony, almost salty mineral note.
