Juan Antonio wanted to make a wine in line with some of the fine white wines he likes to drink, wines with high aging potential and subtle spice from new oak barrels that adds to the complexity. The Ponce Blanco Selección Albilla has waves of fresh grapefruit, lemon, tarragon and Mediterranean herbs, accented by spicy, ginger-flecked notes and a creamy finish. This is a stunning wine with a long life ahead.
