Tasting Notes

Visually, it offers a pale yellow with greenish reflections. On the nose, ripe stone fruits, dried herbs, and an echo of fine pastry are perceived. On the palate, it is savory, persistent – with elegant salinity – and pleasant to drink, with a character marked by the terroir and the flor. 

Pairing

Perfect for fatty fish, grilled seafood, seafood paella, and winter vegetable dishes. It also pairs very well with white meats and soft cheeses, where its salinity and texture provide balance.

Los Insensatos – Tinaja Mix 2022 is the freest expression of Pedro Ximénez without its traditional chains, a deep and surprising wine, born to challenge labels and toast to the terroir.
