BUY THE WINE

Jesús Barquín: Very pale yellow. The nose displays a vanilla note that distinguishes it from most of the rest. The palate shows the effect of oak aging even further. Spicy, intense, a tad saturating. 84

Andrew Jefford: Pale, bright green-gold, with a fine mousse. Pure, fine, elegantly inflected aromas of fennel and white flower. Touch of oak? Bright, fresh, crisp, and lively on the palate, with some “mineral” interest to give it depth and profundity. Vinous finish. It’s not the most allusive wine on the table, nor the most “Catalan” in terms of its expressive repertoire, but it’s beautifully crafted and delicious to drink, with a salty-stony finish of real tautness and pungency. 89

Andreas Larsson: Bright and pale golden color. Young and pure nose, with hints of herbs, chamomile, citrus, lime, and pear; some vinous hints of lees and minerals as well. The palate is nicely restrained, rather medium body, with good freshness and flavor intensity, expanding more on the aftertaste. Pretty long, with good dryness and bite, but still appearing a bit youthful. 86
