Tasting Notes

This characterful reserva offers layers of blackberry and damson backed up by a complex herbaceous streaks of rhubarb leaf and menthol. A restrained touch of vanilla is evident from 12 months in new oak before it slips behind evolved aromas of leather and cigar smoke. In the mouth, elegance and harmony come together to provide supple tannins and softened acidity while further notes of black fruit confirm this as a wine worthy of its 10 plus years of cellaring.
