"This is fruit expressive and fragrant on the nose with dark plum, cumin, game and toasted nut notes, followed by a succulent palate displaying rounded mouthfeel and smooth texture, finishing lingering and tasty. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2023

Ruby red with violet hues. Fruity, raspberry, red fruits. Light notes of vanilla and spice. Good balance of tannins and acidity. Finishing with notes of raspberry, vanilla and light notes of wood.

100% Tempranillo grapes from controlled vineyards in Manchuela (Castilla).

Wine was fermented for 10 days with seleted yeast in controlled temperatures (28-30ºC) with 2 pump-over's daily. They were cold macerated without fermentation for 24 hours and there was 2 pump-over's daily after this during fermentation to maximise extraction. There was post fermentative maceration for 8 days, designed for gentle extraction with one light pump-over daily. Wine was cold stabilised.

Has some issues with the order. Only half got delivered. After talking to customer service it got sorted at the end. Customer service very friendly and helpful. Problem was with supplier.
