Harenna - Lias | Rueda DO Verdejo
White wine | Spain, CASTILLA Y LEON | 2022
This wine has a straw yellow color with green hues and a medium intensity. We smell some complex and structured aromas of herbs, minerals, raisins and zest of orange in the nose, with light earthy tones. The onset is round, with a balanced acidity and bitterness with some anise in the final.

About Harenna
Jose Antonio Arévalo and Benicio Garcia are the founders of the “Garcia and Arévalo” wine estate in 1991.
Their philosophy is to create wines that reflect their origins in climate and soil, along with tradition and technology.
The name Harenna refers to the sandy substrate of the vineyard. Sand is rare in Rueda, which explains the limited production of this wine. The vines are 150 years old on average!
