Cantalapiedra Viticultores 'Cantayano' Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y Leon, Spain 2021 Lady of the Sunshine Vinified in one- to two-year-oldThis delivers a deep, complex bouquet with bags of personality, revealing a nose of pear, peach stone, wild fennel, beeswax, saline and a nice herbal touch of lemongrass.
