NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Bodega Berroja Berroia has a pale lemon, almost water-white appearance with presence of gas.The nose offers an inviting, lively array of citrus fruits like lemon, grapefruit alongside notes of green apple. These fruit aromas are accompanied by hints of sea spray and oyster shell that give the wine an intriguing saline character. The palate reveals a light body with a lean texture and delicate flavors of citrus and orchard fruit with the underlying salinity that carries through on the refreshing finish.
