We have been producing this wine since 1998 and have on numerous occasions had this wine acknowledged in diverse competitions.  The wine embodies all the elements that we hold close to our hearts, bold character while maintaining extreme elegance and finesse, rendering a wonderfully approachable experience. Blending of red and white wines is a passion that we commit to at Nitida, producing wines that are at all times more than the sum of the parts.”
