Tasting notes
Dark red colour, clean and bright. The nose reveals a concentration of fruit, fresh aromas of berries such as blackberries, strawberries and raspberries This is followed by fresh spices and warm, toasty aromas. In the mouth the fruit intensity and concentration are maintained. It finishes long and fresh, with soft tannins. A wine that stands out for the perfect harmony between its concentration and vivacity.
Vinification
Once in the winery, the grapes are crushed and destemmed and sent to different fermentation containers (granites lagares, big oak vats, concrete and stainless-steel vats) by variety and plot. The grapes are macerated for as long as is needed to obtain a wine with the desired body and structure.
Ageing
20% of the wine is aged in French oak barrels, 30% in big oak vats and the remaining 50% stored in stainless steel vats for about 12 months.
Food pairing
A perfect match for a variety of dishes: grilled cod, vegetarian dishes and roast beef. It is also good with cured sheep's milk cheeses.
