NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Raventós i Blanc Silencis Xarel-lo is an exceptional wine that offers the unique characteristics of the Xarel-lo grape variety.This wine offers a beautiful pale yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it presents a delicate and complex bouquet of white flowers, citrus fruits, and subtle herbal notes.
The palate is equally impressive, with a crisp and refreshing acidity that is well-balanced by the wine's creamy texture. Flavors of ripe pear, green apple, and hints of tropical fruits dance on the palate, creating a harmonious and enjoyable tasting experience.
The finish is long and lingering, leaving a pleasant sensation of minerality and a touch of salinity.
