Grape: 100% Viura, organic, 35 year old vines, oaked
The Akemi Blanco is made from 100% old-vine Viura from a single plot. Aged in predominantly second-use American oak, the wine is beautifully rounded and balanced with lively acidity. The tropical and stone fruit come first followed by the creamy texture and feel.
