"A mouthwatering vintage—guaranteed to delight!"

“Plenty of sour cherries here, along with black plums, blackberries, and a citrus note that adds freshness. Full-bodied with explosive black fruit, but just the right combination of firm tannins to provide structure.” (James Suckling)

About the wine:

Plenty of sour cherries here, along with black plums, blackberries, and a citrus note that adds freshness. Full-bodied with explosive black fruit, but just the right balance of firm tannins to provide structure. Best enjoyed in 2021.

Good concentration, expressive aroma, excellent value for the price. A Spanish wine with character that’s easy to drink and very enjoyable.
