Milmanda 2018

100% Chardonnay
An extraordinary aged white wine that seduces from the moment it is uncorked. Its name comes from a route of medieval castles where vines were already cultivated in the Middle Ages. The Torres family employs all its good work in this Chardonnay monovarietal, which is one of the historical references of the Spanish wine scene.
