Made from 100% Tinta de Toro, from vines aged between 16 and 65 years. Intense cherry, it offers complex aromas of rich fruit, brandy, biscuit, coffee, plum and aniseed. On the palate, it is creamy, rich, aromatic and very expressive. The finish leaves a pleasant memory of lightly toasted notes.

Press Review
" The wine is quite approachable and has finesse; it's fine-boned, more fluid and refined than other years. The rains in August resulted in larger grapes with more juice, and the wine is quite approachable even at this young age. It's expressive, clean and powerful (the place is like that) and with 14.81% alcohol that goes unnoticed. It has abundant, fine-grained tannins and some creaminess and spiciness from the time in barrel, developing some mintiness with time in the glass; later, there's more licorice and even aniseed and fennel aromas. Drink 2023-2029. "
