Verónica Romero dedicated this Macabeo to her father. Grapes from bush vines over 40 years old ferment with their skins, which gives the wine colour and tannin. Deep gold with amber glints; blossom, anise, fennel and stone fruit on the nose; dry and structured on the palate, with lively freshness and a long finish.
It needs food with some weight: rice dishes, aged cheese, fish in a rich sauce. If orange wine is new to you, start with the Muda instead.
