Donzella Xarel·lo

Suriol

A seductive and rounded Xarel·lo with huge, Champagne like aromas of nuts, dried pear and peach, and wild herbs complimented with a Fino sherry like bruised apple note. The leesy roundness is juxtaposed by a tense laser-like acidity that pulls through the center of the palate like the high E string tautly stretched down a Spanish guitar's neck. This wine is an ideal pairing with vegetables either fresh or grilled, seafood and grilled poultry. It is difficult to find a white this complex at this price! Both texture and weight combined with freshness and fruit. Drink now or age 3-6 years.
