Produced, exactly, to meet all expectations, our Platónico is the right wine to offer or share with someone you love.
Platónico was born out of the ambition to make the most “consensual” wine possible. A wine that appeals to all styles and consumer profiles. Fruity and easy for entry-level consumers, yet with enough structure to satisfy a more demanding consumer. The perfect wine doesn’t exist, it’s like platonic love… but a consensual wine is something we can aim for.
