The Palo Verde rancho is located close to El Arenal in the iconic town of Amatitán. This parcel sits at 1,260 meters above sea level, and the agave yields an impressive 35% brix level at maturity. The 2022 Reposado incorporates subtle oak into the profile, with a softer integration of aromatics from the prolonged oxygen exposure of 3 months in ex-bourbon barrels.
