TASTING NOTES

• Bright  purple in color.
• Concentrated aromas of violet flowers, plums, blackberries, black ceraza, liquorice notes of toasted wood, minerals, denoting a great personality, with notes of fine spices.
• On the palate you can feel that very large fleshiness that demonstrates the great corpulence of the wine, a long wine with great structure where tannins make an appearance.

PRODUCTION

Made with 100% Tinta de Toro grapes from our own vineyards located in Toro, grown without the use of herbicides or systemic products, in line with the biorhythms of nature. Grapes that come from very old, pre-phylloxera vines, with very low yields. The harvest is done manually, the grapes are carefully selected and the destemming is also manual. The grapes are trodden in the traditional way, and fermentation takes place in open tanks with gentle pumping over. Malolactic fermentation and ageing takes place in new French oak barrels, where the wine remains for 18 months.
