A superb discovery and unforgettable host, Pepe a legendary ambassador for D.O. Granada wines. In this professional wine tasting we found all his wines to be consistent,balanced and persistent. Lots of ripe fruit which ages so well and is perfectly balanced when in contact with oak. The search for perfection on his stray of coupage style wines. What a sight to be here 1200 metres above sea level in an location of outstanding natural beauty against the snow caped mountains of the Sierra Nevada.
