L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

A new white, the 2015 Trotamundos is a blend of 85% old-vine Garnacha Blanca and 15% split between Maturana Blanca and Turruntés from younger vines from the village of Aldeanueva de Ebro. This had a longer élevage in barrel (18 months), as he was looking for a more oxidative style (with more new barrels). It's a white to keep in bottle and has more volume because it's a warmer zone and also a riper year. It's still a bit oaky and will need some time in bottle. 2,200 bottles were filled in June 2017.
