El Níspero 2019 [White]
Producer: Bodegas El Níspero
Region: DO La Palma

100% albillo criollo grown on volcanic soils in the north of La Palma (Canary Islands), sustainable viticulture, temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel.

Upfront aromas of the wine's namesake "níspero" (medlar, a tree grown fruit similar to the persimmon), along with peach/apricot, fresh herbs/straw, honeycomb and good dose of volcanic minerality.
Clean & fresh on the palate with stone fruit, honey and flowers, alongside great balance and a delightful mineral-driven finish. Pure pleasure, excellent!

Eufrosina Pérez Rodríguez runs this family owned winery in the north of La Palma, and "nísperos" are an important crop on the island.
