Tasting notes

Appearance

Deep garnet with ruby reflections, displaying remarkable clarity and viscosity. The color reveals medium-plus intensity with subtle brick nuances at the rim, suggesting the wine's harmonious evolution

Aroma

Wild strawberry and Morello cherry dance with toasted chestnuts and forest floor. White pepper meets Mediterranean garrigue over slate minerality. Bold, earthy, nut-forward elegance.

Wine Floral | Fruity | Mineral | Roasted | Spicy

Taste

Silky tannins coat without overwhelming. Medium-bodied finesse where oxidative aging softens edges while building complexity. Fruit concentration meets mineral tension. Persistent, elegant finish.

Wine Corsé | Elégant | Long | Minéral | Souple

Grape varieties Mencía

Terroir The bedrock speaks in tongues of granite and schist, metamorphic whispers that have shaped wine for millennia. Here, heroic viticulture demands every grape be harvested by hand on slopes that reach dizzying heights, where mechanization fails and only human determination prevails. The soil composition of loose structure with high permeability absorbs morning mist yet drains completely, creating stress that concentrates flavor into each berry.
