Tasting Notes

It displays a deep red color with dark ruby tones and high intensity. On the nose, aromas of black fruits such as plum and cassis predominate, accompanied by a characteristic herbal profile reminiscent of green pepper. Aging contributes tertiary notes of vanilla and tobacco. On the palate, it is well-structured and full-bodied, with firm, well-present tannins that provide a broad and consistent progression, leading to a long finish.

 

Pairing

Perfect to pair with rich, protein-heavy dishes such as sirloin steak or grilled meats, aged cheeses like Manchego, and hearty winter stews, as its structure and tannins cleanse the palate effectively.
