delicious
wine for friends

Lady B 2017 comes from one of the highest-altitude vineyards in Yecla. A wine with great body and a ridiculously low price for its quality, its true value lies in its beautiful fruit intensity and the balance between its refined tannins and refreshing acidity. A clean, intense, and flavorful wine.

Too bad—the fruit is there, but it's overshadowed by too much body.
