Nose
When it opens, aromas of blackberry, chocolate, violets, sweet spices and slightly mineral notes emerge, mixing it all in a harmonious way. Then mocha and black pepper aromas appear.
Palate
Soft entrance in the mouth, with medium body, with intense though delicate tannins. Lingering and enjoyable finish.
Winemaking
Hand-harvested grapes with yields of 6 to 6,5 ton per ha. Fermented in stainless steel vessels to capture the variety’s aromas and bright fruit flavors. 80% of the wine aged for 5 months with French oak staves, medium and medium plus toast. The other 20% aged for 11 months in French oak barrels.
Appearance
Intense and deep purple color, bright and clean, with blue and lilac hints, well integrated colored legs.
Food Pairing
Perfect match for all sorts of meats, roasted or with sauces, as well as roasted fish with grilled vegetables. It can be served with the starters, as ham or carpaccio, till with the main courses both. Also ideal with desserts such as chocolate cake, strawberry pie, or just with a Cuban cigar.
