Mixed old vineyards.
Savior and resistant, Queen Isabella has ensured the existence of wines and vineyards on the islands to modern day since the phylloxera attack in the 19th Century. For many it is not even considered wine! For us, it is cuture, folklore and part of our tradition. Paying tribute more than 200 years of history in the islands, this “Isabella the Forbidden” is elegant, aromatic, authentic yet... simple like all good things are!
Dark ruby colour with medium concentration and exuberant nose and intense passion fruit notes. The attack is fresh, authentic and simple like everything that’s good.
