Sipping Fine Wine

La Celestiere is surrounded by its vines, planted nearly a century ago, 100% Grenache, aged in oak, deep Ruby with aromas of dark red fruits with spice and blossom notes. On the palate cherry and blackberry flavors with herb and black pepper spice. Fine soft tannins, good acidity and balance, medium+ finish ending with earthy character. Nice! Drink now!

Palate, Blackberry & cherry flavors with floral spice integrated with firm tannins, long finish ending with oak, earthy herb spice tang. Excellent! Tasting Sample!

Excellent. Tertiary flavors of leather, earth, stewed red cherry. Tannins have a bit of a bite at the end, but so delicious!!!!
