This is a red made entirely with Tempranillo grapes from a selection of very special vineyards over 60 years old that give this wine great aromatic complexity and flavors. The wine remains for 16 months in 80% French oak barrels and 20% American oak, resulting in a wine that offers a multitude of nuances. The perfect combination of intense fruit, spicy notes and mineral character. Powerful and elegant.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Intense ruby bright colour with a beautiful concentration.
Nose
Complex and powerful with ripe fruit very well integrated with oak and mineral nuances. An explosion of vibrant fruits, with a very pleasant toasted notes and well integrated spice.
Palate
Very powerful toasty notes (cocoa and coffee) of high quality wood, perfectly blended with ripe fruit. Excellent acidity melds the wine together.
Food pairing
Perfect with grilled lamb chops, juicy Iberian pork or middle-cured sheep's cheese.
