Tasting Notes
Bright cherry with a deep robe and very luminous purple edge. It has an intense bouquet, an expressive and fragrant nose, dominant red fruit wrapped in smoky notes and mineral flavors. The nose is tamed by the wood, with hints of cedar. Smooth on the palate, good acidity and meaty, defined tannin's that bring to mind ripe plums and black olives, with a long berry-laden finish. A fine wine with a Mediterranean character.
Food Pairing
Recommended with paella, roast meats and semi-mature cheeses
