TASTING NOTES
Appearance: Bright and deep red-ruby colour. Fine tears that slide slowly through the glass.
Nose: Intense aromas of red rose, wild blackberry, red plum, ripe raspberry and delicate notes of fresh cream. After shaking, elegant aromas of white pepper, nutmeg and lightly roasted coffee beans are released.
Mouth: Intense flavour of red fruits: wild blackberries, raspberries and plums. Toffee and roasted coffee beans aftertaste. Full and persistent sensation throughout the palate. Medium balanced structure and fantastic acidity that enhances the sensation of freshness. Ripe, integrated and pleasant tannins.
Service and harmonies: Served between 16ºC and 18ºC in a medium-sized glass with a wide body. It is an ideal wine to accompany red meat dishes made on the grill or in the oven. It will also be a fantastic ally of meat stews and autum/winter recipes with wild boletus, feathered game, foie, black truffles and intensely flavoured sauces.
