Elaboration:
The grapes are hand picked, de-stemmed and crushed before undergoing fermentation at a controlled temperature (28-30°C) for one week and followed by maceration to maximize extraction. Malolactic fermentation takes place in American and French oak barrels and the wine is aged on complete lees for 18 months.
-
Taste:
An intense coloured wine with violet tones. It is powerful on the nose and palate revealing red fruits, confectionery, meaty flavours and toasted wood combined with spices such as pepper and nutmeg and hints of butter and chocolate. Full bodied and well structured from beginning to end with a lingering finish. A great expression of a Spanish Reserva with edge.
-
Service:
16°C. Great with game dishes, roasted meat, paté and hard cheeses.
