A big favourite with our Spanish customers. Very bright, pure ruby colour. Red-berry aromas which evolve towards toasted, charred-oak and coffee nuances. Balanced on the palate. A deep, intense, flavoursome wine. The fruit, previously pure finesse, now becomes potent. An elegant, persistent finish.
‘The reserva has a complex, elegant nose of blackcurrant and mint, with a fairly full-bodied palate that is impeccably balanced, with cassis and forest fruits, all bound up in lightly tannic structure. Beautiful wine.’ John Wilson, Irish Times, 31st July 2010.
