Product Description
This is a big wine made from 25-40 year old vines. It’s bold and ripe on the palate with black cherry and plum flavors, a chewy texture and fine, firm tannins, finishing very dry. While this wine is approachable now, it will be better with another year or two in bottle. It’s a blend of 85% Tempranillo and 15% Merlot.
