Notes from Jose Pastor Selections:

"Laura Lorenzo was the winemaker and viticulturist at an established Ribeira Sacra estate for close to a decade. In 2014, she struck out on her own with her project Daterra Viticultores, and now works small plots of old vines organically in the Val do Bibei-Quiroga subzone of Ribeira Sacra, in Valdeorras, and in Arribes del Duero.

Camino De La Frontera is a field blend of Malvasia, Verdejo, Puesta en Cruz and Palomino"
