On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and balanced, with ripe tannins and a long, lingering finish. It is an excellent example of the region's best terroir and winemaking, and a great pairing for grilled meats and aged cheeses.

In accordance with the age-old saying that people typically remember the first and not the second, this offer positions you at the forefront — among the initial individuals in the USA to savor the inaugural appearance of Volver's unfiltered red blend from La Mancha. This Spanish winemaker holds a distinguished status in the region, consistently securing positions in the top 20 of Spectator's highly sought-after Top 100 annual wine selections. Their reputation shines through in this blend of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon, cultivated in the limestone-rich soils of their "Finca los Juncares" single vineyard. From the naturally low-yielding vines to Volver's meticulous grape selection process, to the aging in new French oak, and ultimately the unfiltered bottling — this represents an exceptionally pure manifestation of La Mancha terroir in a wine.
