50% Macabeu, 40% Garnatxa Blanca and 10% Cartoixà (aka Xarel-lo) grown on various plots of up to 70 years of age on limestone. 20% of the grapes are macerated on the skins for 24 hours and the rest goes direct to press before native yeast fermentation. 30% is aged in 3000L clay amphora and 70% is aged in old wood vessels of 300-4000L for nine months. “Prepare to be seduced,” say Sara and René!

"A wine that seems to go from strength to strength, especially since Sara included a portion of Brisat Macabeo into the mix. Bruised apples, fennel, orchard fruits and chamomile; delicately nutty, fresh and mouth-coating. 2024-2028"

"I also tasted the 2022 Dido Blanc, which has more exuberant notes of quince, yellow plums and peach. It's riper, with 13.71% alcohol and lower acidity, and it's a little cloudier and darker in color, a deep golden. The wine is more voluptuous, with more volume, and it has a rounder feeling to it in general."
