TASTING NOTES

It is a wine that is characterized by a delicate view with intense reddish tints. On the nose, red and black fruit stands out, with the presence of figs, accompanied by spicy aromas, mainly white pepper. In the mouth, the intensity of the fruit manifests itself again and blends with the typicity of the elegant tannins.
