Tune yourself into the latest broadcast of a 100% Spanish wine. This delicious Verdejo is a mouth full of big fruit. Juicy green apple, sweet juicy peach and an exciting hint of citrus peel will have you talking non stop. This TAPAS WINE speaks for itself….so go on and give it a try! Terroir and Vineyards The character of this white is a combination of continental weather (long hot summers, cold winters) with a certain Atlantic maritime influences. with clay and gravelly soils. Temperatures vary widely and can drop below zero in winter (-1 °C) and can reach 30 °C in summer. There is a risk of frost, freezing fog, high winds and hailstones in winter/spring ​ Winemaking The grapes were mechanically harvested throughout the night preserving their natural acidity and aromatic characters. Slow pneumatic press cycle, cold sealing and musts for 24 hours, racking and fermentation at low temperature 16Cº-18Cº in 100% stainless steel tanks. ​ Tasting notes So clear, this is almost crystalline in appearance. It’s flaxen, with green inflections, and boasts clean, crisp aromas of lemonade, hard lemon candy, dried grass and fresh thyme. The lithe and vibrant palate feels silky at the core before a surprisingly firm tannic character brings along a pleasantly cleansing sensation. The wine has just enough body to counter its firm skeleton. There’s a modest finish on this fun sipper.

El Mago white 2018 is a light wine with a great freshness. On the nose there are nice aromas of green apple and bone fruits. On the palate, the citric and mineral aroma stands out. The finish is very pleasant and fairly long with a fresh acidity and a hint of dried fruit on the back palate. It’s the perfect partner for oysters.
