Majestic Evolution in Magnum Format
The Quintaluna 2021 1500 ml White Wine offers the maximum expression of longevity and roundness that only a Magnum bottle can provide. Produced by Ossian Vides y Vinos in Nieva (Segovia), it originates from small plots of Verdejo cultivated using strict organic farming methods on loamy and sandy soils at over 850 meters of altitude. The winemaking combines spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts in large French oak barrels and stainless steel tanks, followed by aging on fine lees. This dry wine stands out for its Atlantic tension, fresh acidity, unctuous volume, and a tenacious finish with saline and citrus notes.
