A very elegant and pleasant wine with its own personality.

Intense cherry colour with violet edges. Medium robe. Bright and dense legs.

Clean and fresh in the nose. Its notes of fresh red fruit are very well integrated with the creamy notes provided by the oak. When it opens up, some notes of mocha, licorice and vanilla are displayed along withsubtle floral and balsamic touches and a slight mineral nuance. Very elegant and a little sweety.

Extraordinary and pleasant wine from the Ribera del Duero with a good attack and very tasty, sweet, soft, silky and very fresh mid palate. Its high presence of fruit is noticed along with the creamy and spicy notes provided by the wood. Its correct acidity provides the wine with a good freshness. Polished tannins and a kong and very persistent finish.

An elegant and very tasty fruity wine to be enjoyed.
