Sipping Fine Wine

From young vines, deep Ruby with aromas of red berry fruits, spice, 100% Mencia, aged in oak for 4 months. On the palate flavors of blackberry and wild cherry with nice round spice. Fine tannins, medium finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy mineral notes.

Nose - wet mulch, earthy and animal pelt. Main tastes - a lovely pomegranate sweetness that turns into a savory almost grilled flavor. Character - sweet but gives some tannins and a little bit of bitterness. Interesting wine.
