The vineyards are planted on sandy soils at an altitude of 750 metres above sea level. Gobelet trained
Tempranillo vines at a density of 1,600 vines/hectare. The vines average 60-100 years in age and as a
result produce small yields of just 1-1.5kgs/vine. Fermented at 28ºC in stainless steel and then aged for
12 months in French oak barriques.
TASTING NOTE
Intense ripe fruit, lifted floral characters on the nose with notes of wood spice and liquorice. The palate
is plump and rich with blackberry fruit, clove, and dark chocolate – complex and intense, with smooth
tannins and a long finish.
