Tasting notes

Pure Morenillo wine from 75-year-old vines grown at 400 meters, aged for 15 months in French oak. It has a ripe raspberry and wild strawberry bouquet that is seductively sensual and well-defined. The palate has a succulent entry of sweet Morello, milk chocolate, and a touch of spice and crisp acidity that counterbalances the weight of fleshy fruit in the end. Very fresh and long after taste. Limited production to 3.300 bottles.
