Red
Technical specifications

A red wine of international appeal, yet with a strong connection with its local roots. The nose is reminiscent of a classic Bordeaux, without forsaking the red fruits notes (just ripe) or the hints of creme de cassis, concluding with notes suggestive of graphite and a box of cigars. It is a full-bodied wine, fresher than the previous years, given its unusual acidity. Has a good evolutionary potential.
