TASTING
Sight: A clean, clear, full-bodied wine. Dark cherry in red colour with hints of purple, the wine does not show signs of age and still reveals its youth.
Nose: Clean and intese on the nose with strong mineral tones (graphite) and ripe fruit with balsamic base notes before agitation. These same aromas together with notes of fruit liqueur, the smoked aroma of cigars, roasted cofee and bitter chocolate come to the fore with agitation. A very complex wine with a perfectly blended range of aromas.
Palate: Higly potent, energetic and long-lasting on the palate with the marked presence of mature, well-blended tannins. Well-balanced acidity offers freshness and highlights the notes of ripe fruit with a characteristic mineral background.
Finish: Complex, intense finish. Very pleasant, long-lasting and persistent aftertaste.
Serving Suggestions: Ideal as an accompaniament to rich dishes, this wine can be enjoyed now or in the coming months if stored in suitable conditions.
Serving temperature: Serve between 16°C and 18°C.
