Description

Quetzal Familia white corresponds to a special and limited edition that only occurs in years considered exceptional, the result of a careful choice of grapes that grow in the noblest portions of the property, whose level of development and maturation presents a unique quality. Quetzal Família is thus not only a reflection of the place where they were born, but is also an expression of the artistic approach we have to life, being presented and marketed in Magnum bottles.
