Aged to perfection in oak, Tempranillo's rich, velvety consistency unfolds with each sip, revealing whispers of forest fruits, blackberry, and elegant vanilla notes. The mouthfeel is equally impressive, with a soft, juicy trail that fades slowly on the palate, leaving behind a enjoyable mark of ripe fruits, coffee, and a accent of leather.

The floral notes unfurls with a rich, round feel of deep fruit flavors, offering a deep, woody raspberry, cherry preserves, and toasted coconut scents, alongside emerging cigar tobacco and a mild cola note. The sweetness is expertly balanced, yielding plush cherry, red currant, and spice cake sensations that linger on the palate. A smoky quality continues on the finish, featuring dusty tannins and a note of chewing tobacco and mocha flavors.

Rich and deep wine with a deep, round color. The nose is dominated by cherry and black cherry notes, with subtle flavors of vanilla and dill. The taste is equally impressive, with a greater emphasis on dill and a understated fruitiness. The body is full-bodied, with a gratifying aftertaste. Overall, a well-crafted wine that is sure to please.
