Interestingly, already showing some tawny notes of aging. Lifted aromatics of sour cherry, raspberry and dried rose. The palate comes across as medium-bodied, but there is some heft on entry. Cherry, strawberry, earth and a touch of dried currant flavours are framed by healthy acids, a touch of tannin and a savoury finish. A beautiful wine to sip on its own, it would also compliment Patatas Bravas, roast chicken or grilled octopus in a romesco sauce.
