Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
On the nose, hints of cinnamon & lactic nuances. Underlying aromas of tobacco & tart red berry fruit begin to come through. On the palate it displays fresh, juicy tannins & dairy notes, red berries & sweet spices return and linger well into the long, pleasant aftertaste.
Production Notes
Aged for 16 months in American and French oak casks and kept for a few months in the vat to ensure good blending of the wine before bottling.
Winemaker Notes
The composition is 90% Tempranillo & 10% Mazuelo. Cold maceration & fermentation at a controlled temperature to preserve all the fruity grape aromas & obtain the best colour extraction possible.
