This a very original and interesting white wine from Castilla y León.
| Appearance | The wine Blanco de Matasnos has a bright yellow colour with some greenish glints. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This blend of Chardonnay, Viognier and Verdejo is certainly complex, and it is still in the process of assembling its parts. Notes of white fruit and yellow fruit, particularly pineapple, along some tropical nuances, white flowers and remembrances of aniseed and fennel. |
| Palate | Smooth and savoury, Bosque de Matasnos Blanco is moreish and delicately spicy, with focus and a bold structure. Remembrances of pears, peaches and pineapple, crisp acidity, and long, creamy finish. |
| Our personal opinion | Made from a most uncommon blend, Blanco de Matasnos 2018 is a substantial white wine. It deserves to be known and appreciated. |
