Tasting Notes
Aromas of cedar, dark berries, and crushed vanilla on the nose, with notes of mocha and dried herbs from the extended oak ageing. Structured yet approachable on the palate with fine-grained tannins and a long finish. A contemporary-styled Reserva full of berry fruit and subtle spice. Built from a selection of the best Tempranillo with Graciano and Mazuelo, and made only in stronger vintages.
