Fino La Janda has a bright, pale yellow colour with golden highlights, typical of a well-aged fino. The bouquet is expressive and refined, with pronounced aromas of toasted almonds, chamomile, citrus and a characteristic floral touch from ageing under flor (a layer of yeast cells). There are also subtle saline and mineral accents that give the wine an authentic character. On the palate, this fino is dry and fresh, with a lightly creamy texture and a pronounced flavour of nuts, yeast and a hint of green apple. The high acidity and mineral notes create a beautiful balance and make the wine lively and easy to drink. The finish is long and subtle, with lingering saline and almond-like nuances that reinforce the character of this fino.
Perfect as an aperitif, but also delicious with Ibérico ham, olives, salted almonds, seafood and sushi.
