Gran Cardiel Verdejo: A young white wine with intense herbal aromas associated with the varietal such as fennel, freshly cut grass, mixed with aromas of white fruit such as apple and pear and delicate tropical notes of mango and pineapple.

Alexandro Oloroso Sherry: Showing off how versatile white wine can really be, depending on winemaker's final choices, Oloroso Sherry is a white wine that has been barrel-aged and fortified. A true surprise for the palate with savory flavors of maple, dried fruits, toasty walnut, and hints of tobacco.

Equilibrio Monastrell Blend: A medium-bodied blend of Monastrell and Syrah with aromas of red berry, sweet black fruit and dates. The wine’s lively acidity brings magnificent balance.
