TASTING
The aroma: very strong and with an appreciated essence of Rioja Alavesa. Flavours such as black fruit compote, hints of liquorice, tobacco and special touches all stand out. The barrel aging appears to be even more notable after the underwater maturation in the form of vanilla and roasted coffee.
On the palate: We perceive a great abundance of mature black and red fruits, almost compotes. A perfectly integrated acidity which results in a wine of great volume on the palate and of excellent structure. In summary: fruity, potent and mature yet without losing the freshness of a young wine.
