A tiny woman, romantic and who always speaks very quietly, but with a volcano inside, who has not ceased to think or do something for the wine industry every day, particularly for her beloved tannat, and who despite any vicissitudes she must face, she will always find new roads to walk forward, and will never stop dreaming.
