an exciting, balanced wine from this excellent bodega. The Calvente Guindalera white 2006 made of muscat of Alexandria was once on the wine list at the former top restaurant elBulli (near Barcelona)
Reviews
Vins Gastronomiques Controlés (Wine & Food Association) of the vintage 2014: "8+. Beautiful colour, fragrance of minerals, subtle ripe fruits, clear aromas of the muscat of Alexandria but stylish, clean of smell and taste, expressive, pure, light perfume, a touch of apricot, fine style, lots of length, nice aperitif.'
Deze wijn past goed bij o.a.:
vette vis, zoals zalmtartaar, gerookte makreel, coquilles, maar óók heerlijk als aperitief!
