Late harvest to reach high levels of sugar concentration (potential 19 degrees). Manual collection on December 5.
The freshness of its high acidity contrasts with the sweetness of the 100 grams of residual sugar, which makes it a sweet wine that is not heavy, leaving a long finish in the mouth with hints nutty.
