My journey of Spanish wines continues.!
Despite the length of maturation, fresh red and black fruit, such as plums, cherries and berries punch your nose at first sniff. Then aroma of vanilla, chocolate and nutmeg flirts you with a subtle hint of meatiness.
The mouthfeel is both intense and smooth. Like the aroma, a cluster of red and black fruit explodes in your mouth, followed by luscious vanilla and chocolate. It's weighty but the finish is pleasantly smooth.
Don't get overwhelmed by its high acidity, though. Yes, it's very acidic, but it complements so well salty and fatty dishes.
This wine displays such unique characteristics of terroir. Plus, it's a beautiful food-friendly wine. Highly recommended.
