White Garnatxa (63%), White Samsó (37%)
This wine is born of grapes cultivated in the vineyards of Garnacha and Samso, situated in the slate slopes from where it is possible to see the sea and the mountains of the Canigo, snow-covered for a good part of the year. It's name ("Of Snow" in Catalan) and the crystal snow that decorates the label, are inspired by this singular landscape. The colour blue of the name reminds us of the sea and the yellow, the golden reflections of the wine.
