Tasting Notes
The harvest is carried out by hand in the second half of September. This wine is made from a selection of La Rioja's finest Tempranillo grapes. Controlled fermentation at 26ºC.
An attractive rich black cherry colour with a subtle purple tinge. On the nose, abundant aromas of strawberry, raspberry and other fruits of the forest. On the palate it unfolds its fruity character and good concentration, a well-rounded and pleasant finish with a perfect acidity.
