Notes | |||
"The Tempranillo vineyards are planted in sandy soils in the traditional “vaso”, head-pruned, system. The handpicked grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks and then the wine is aged in French and American oak barrels. Deep purple in color, the aromatics erupt with a mix of crushed red and black fruits, sweet spice, and tinged with cedar. An incredible value, possessing fantastic fruit, excellent mid-palate depth and ripe tannins." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Dark cherries, sweet spices and a hint of garrigues and dried herbs. Flavorful and full-bodied on the palate with tight, creamy tannins and a medium-long finish. Vegan. Drink now." —James Suckling |
