(at Best new Spanish wines tasting, 21 Jun 2021)
Drinking Window: 2021 - 2025
A silky and ethereal Tempranillo with immediate forest floor notes on the nose plus a dash of pepper spice. The black pepper really kicks in on the palate, which is rich, long and punctuated by cassis, cherry drops and wood smoke. Wears its 14.5% alcohol well.
