Tasting Notes

100% Tempranillo.

Ruby red in color, clean and bright. On the nose and palate, it offers fresh, fruit-driven notes of red berries, complemented by subtle oak-derived aromas of coconut and vanilla.

Full of character, with a generous and lingering finish, this wine is a true reflection of the exceptional quality of its grapes — crafted to impress from the very first sip.
