"Notes of ripe fruit. Aromas of sarsaparilla and blackcurrant lead to a round, rich palate. The finish features ripe, silky tannins. Drink now." " (James Suckling) Planted at altitude on clay-limestone soils, the old Tempranillo, Viura, and Graciano vines produce a fresh wine with aromas of spicy red and black fruits. The palate is both powerful and silky, with structured tannins. Don't wait to discover it!
