Flavour

Spicy, balsamic, cured leather, cocoa, tobacco and vanilla notes set against a background of candied fruit. Elegant in the mouth, with good structure and balance, silky, creamy tannins and lively acidity on the finish. Big, complex aftertaste which will grow as the wine ages in the bottle.

Food Matching

This great classic Rioja is suitable with main courses without heavy sauces, meat stews and desserts with chocolate. It is also perfect as a closer for a good meal.

Grape Variety

Tempranillo/Tinto Fino
