ABOUT THE WINE
The production of white wine is part of the 'Uva Merseguera Project', whose main objective is the recovery of this variety, of which only 25 hectares are planted in the field of Cartagena, as a result of the arrival of irrigated crops .
Tomás Ferro white wine is the result of the interrelation between traditional farming and the use of technology, benefiting water savings and positive effects for health.
