Tasting Notes: Thirteen months in oak have done little to diminish the vibrant cherry red colour that is typical of Tempranillo from this part of Spain, underscored with a multitude of blue, indigo, red, purple, mauve and violet undertones.

Complex, refined and inviting nose. An outstanding body of fruit with blackberry, raspberry, a hint of liquorice and vanilla.

Smooth, long and warm palate showing a broad range of fruity flavours, deliciously spicy with balanced acidity and silky smooth tannins which provides consistency.
