"A mouthwatering vintage, guaranteed pleasure!"

"Lots of sour cherries here, along with black plums, blackberries, and a citrus character that brings freshness. Full-bodied with explosive black fruits, but just the right combination of firm tannins to give it structure." (James Suckling)

About wine:

Lots of sour cherries here, along with black plums, blackberries, and a citrus character that brings freshness. Full-bodied with explosive black fruits, but just the right combination of firm tannins to give it structure. Drink in 2021.

Review and opinion by Mr. OLIVIER H. Published on 08/30/2020

Beautiful concentration, expressive nose, very good value for money. A Spanish wine with character, easy to drink and very pleasant.
