INFO: Situated at the point where the Ebro and Ega rivers meet, Tempranillo and Graciano old vines are planted on clay-limestone soil at 400 metres altitude. Meticulous attention is given to these prized vineyards throughout the year. Grapes are then hand-picked in early October.
Aged for 36 months in French and American barrels with a further 5 years in bottle to allow all the complex flavour to integrate before its release.
This wine stands out for its elegance and intense aromas of dried fruit, liquorice, spices, cocoa and coffee. Ripe Garnacha notes of red berries, there are spicy overtones and layers of red fruit.
