Fino URIUM
Aged under velo de flor
We are extremely proud of our solera wines aged under a veil of yeasts called velo de flor, which produce highly distinctive finos of exceptional quality. The location, orientation and construction materials of the bodega itself are major contributing factors to the creation of the special microclimate which is suitable for the development of yeasts.
The natural protection that the flor gives to these wines, prevents the oxidation and modifies them, it produces the more intensive oenological process we know. All of this prints a special character to our wines.
