Notes | |||
"Intense black-cherry color with good depth of color and hardly any signs of evolution. Very expressive aromas on the nose with notes of licorice, cinnamon and black pepper, with just a subtle hint of the long cask-ageing, thanks to its great complexity and ripe, concentrated fruit. Fresh and easy to drink on the palate, good backbone and lovely, polished tannins. The long, persistent finish leaves gentle balsamic reminders of the finest quality." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"A fresh, accessible red, with light tannins framing flavors of black plum and cherry, loamy earth and hints of mandarin orange peel and tobacco. Tempranillo and Graciano. Drink now through 2026. 347,750 cases made, 47,850 cases imported." —Wine Spectator |
