TASTE:

Well structured, long, very pleasant. Good union of the two varieties dry and fruity. This Garnacha Blanca and Moscatel de Alejandría union is very interesting. Wine of great freshness, intense and long in the mouth.

Soft dishes, vegan and vegetarian cuisine, salads with fresh fruits and nuts. Roasted vegetables, roasted with L 'Escala anchovies, typical Mediterranean rice (black rice, seafood, a banda), typical shrimp and cuttlefish fideuas, "arrossejats of fideus with prawn from Palamos".

Vineyards planted on the terrace from 2002 inside the municipality of Colera.
The dry stone terraces, the slates and slates of the ground as well as the climate marked by the Tramuntana are intrinsic characteristics of the town of Colera. The viticulture that the Hugas de Batlle family practices is respectful with the environment and also with traditions, the best way to perpetuate this impressive environment that the Greeks and Romans already knew and that surely lived its most splendid time shortly before the late phylloxera 19th century.
