MESSEGUERA
MERSEGUERA WHITE
The guardian of the fields, it was
the most important white variety
of the Vinalopó Valley. It owes
its name to its great resistance
to drought and to the aridity of
the soil.
With Messeguera we want to
vindicate a historical variety
with enormous potential but
largely unknown. At Finca Collado
we believe that it deserves a
deeper study and a greater
dedication, to be understood in
order to give it the opportunity
to offer us great wines like this
one.
An expressive yet elegant wine, a
pleasant yet complex wine, a
gastronomic wine to accompany a
good meal, a wine to think about
and enjoy.
It is released to the market with
two years of difference between
its sale and its harvest year. Its
optimal moment of consumption
varies between two and five years
after the harvest.

Va de Bo is the expression of the Bobal
grape from Alto Vinalopó, fresh, with
personality and elegant at the same time.

NOSE: In the nose, the fruity and fresh
nuances characteristic of the variety stand
out, with spicy, roasted notes and a hint of
honey.
MOUTH: A characteristic freshness and creamy
texture in balance with docile and round
tannins that accompany the long passage in
the mouth, Va de Bo does not leave the
palate indifferent..
