Regional information
The Duero river runs through the centre of the famous wine growing region to the north of central Spain. The vineyards are relatively high at 7-800 metres above sea level, and very cold winter temperatures are counter-balanced by the hot continental summer climate. The day/night & seasonal temperature differences combined with low rainfall, concentrate the grapes ripeness and bring out its flavour.
Tasting notes
Very intense picota cherry red with violet hues. Aromas of ripe black fruit on the nose, well blended with the toasty and spiced hints from aging in barrels. A broad, warm mouthfeel with a long finish and good cellaring potential.
