Complex and elegant. Ripe stone fruit, quince and a hint of citrus with undertones of toffee, vanilla and toasted notes.

An unctuous and very fresh wine, with volume and good acidity. Long rich finish.

Pairing Notes
The first pairing we propose, and this is a true winner, is French toast with foie gras caramelised with peach caviar. A festival for the senses. You can also accompany it with seafood rice, soft cheeses, oven-baked fish and baby vegetables. Or if you have to improvise, there's no dish that it will spoil. It's an amazing wine!
Occasion
Among many other reasons, this is a perfect wine for connoisseurs who like very slight hints of the barrel. Very slight, we insist. The best coopers were contracted for this wine and they made the wood an extra ingredient, without making a fanfare while maintaining the varietal elegance of an extraordinary Macabeo. And without sounding like a cliché, this wine will connect you to surf-and-turf dishes. Let's open our minds.

L'Olivera Cooperativa
Celler Cooperatiu L'Olivera makes wines and olive oils with a view to expressing their true origins.
But the Bodega L'Olivera is much more. It's a cooperative for social integration, which incorporates people with difficulties who play an active role in the whole process.
Do Costers Del Segre
The continental nature of this region, far from the sea, kept it off trading routes for centuries, resulting in wines with characteristic features.
It was the first place in Catalonia where the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay varieties were introduced, together with native varieties, and also where Californian winemaking techniques were adopted.
This is much more than just a bottle of wine
