Tasting Notes

Solpost Blanc is a soft, but shining yellow colour, offering us a typical Garnatxa Blanca nose. Floral aromas are combined with citric and tropical fruit, even though there is a hint of saline and minerals in the background. In the mouth, these notes continue to appear, giving a refreshing, wide and long lasting.
