Deep Ruby with an elegant bouquet of berry fruits, pepper spice with earthy tones, a traditional Rioja, aged 26 months in American (40%) and French (60%) oak. On the palate flavors of plum and sour cherry, tobacco, smoky pepper spice, lively acidity. Fine firm tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, spice and an earthy character.

Enough tannins to cleanse the palate and mature enough for a smooth finish. The nose is pleasant and the mouthfeel velvety.
