Nose:

Very good intensity, with perfectly integrated oak. Highlights of red ripen fruit in the cherry range.

There is roundness in the maturation of the Mediterranean profile seen from La Rioja.

Behind the red fruit there is a set of sweet spices that reminds fine cinnamon and cloves. Fruits and spices create a perfect harmony.

It is voluminous and full.
