  Served by the glass. When you are quietly in Cognac region and you come from the hand of Telmo Rodríguez to Spain to produce wines in different denominations, you know what awaits to you, monsieur. White wine without a definite personality, too intense on the palate, with an exorbitant acidity and a slight alcoholic imbalance. On the nose you need to pay a nice amount of concentration to appreciate notes of hazelnuts and white fruit. Neither any attachment to the terroir nor typicity riojana. Next up, if you please.
  
  Servido por copas. Cuando te encuentras tranquilamente en Cognac y vienes de la mano de Telmo Rodríguez a España a elaborar vinos en diferentes denominaciones, ya sabes lo que te espera monsieur. Vino blanco sin una personalidad definida, demasiado intenso al paladar, con una acidez desorbitada y una ligero desequilibrio alcohólico. En nariz necesita que le muestres concentración para apreciar notas de avellanas y fruta blanca. Sin apego al terruño ni tipicidad riojana. Siguiente, por favor.

  Pefer 2017, it was like a white wine from Burgundy.
  2018 is a kittle sweet, not the style I like.
