By the glass. Yellow colour with green irisations. On the nose stand out that vegetable aromas along with some fresh citrus fruit. On the palate it is a fresh and light wine, fully gastronomic, short and with a sharp acidity. Always appetizing.
Por copas. Color amarillo con irisaciones de color verde. En nariz destacan los aromas vegetales junto con la fruta fresca cítrica. En boca es un vino fresco y ligero, plenamente gastronómico, corto y con una aguda acidez. Siempre apetecible.

100% Girò Roz (a pink-skinned mutation of Giró Blanco). 14% alcohol.
Luminous and quite intensely-colored, youthful yellow-green appearance. The nose is sweet, very tropical and noticeably fruit-driven with heady aromas of passion fruit and papaya, some peach candies, a little bit of honeyed richness, light notes of cantaloupe and almost Northern Rhône-like floral hints of floral chamomile character and a herbal of noble hops. The wine is rich, round and rather fat on the palate with a full body and quite intense flavors of ripe apricots and mango, some pineapple-driven notes of fruit cocktail, light candied nuances of gummi bears, a little bit of banana, a hint of herby character and a touch of perhaps woody spice. The medium-plus acidity doesn't feel high enough to lend the wine necessary freshness and sense of structure, whereas the rather high alcohol shows through a little. The finish is ripe, round and juicy with tropical medium-long flavors of peach and some apricot, a little bit of banana, light candied notes of gummi bears, a hint of apple jam and a touch of papaya.
A very rich, round and supple that suffers from the same problem as so many Mallorcan wines: too much ripeness, too much alcohol and too little acidity. The wine is full of gras and while the fruit packs quite a bit of intensity, it really doesn't have enough structure to back it all up, so the wine ends up tasting flabby and lacking energy. I really can't see the wine having much upside, so most likely it won't benefit from further aging. Drink now. Starting to feel a bit pricey for the quality at 13€.
