Wine Expert Note:

Luzon Altos de Luzón is a Spanish red wine that hails from the Jumilla region in southeastern Spain. On the nose, Altos de Luzón offers an enticing bouquet of ripe black fruits, such as blackberry and plum, accompanied by hints of spice, vanilla, and toasted oak. These aromas continue to unfold on the palate, where the wine displays a harmonious balance between fruitiness and oak influence. The flavors are rich and concentrated, with notes of black cherry, blackcurrant, and dark chocolate. The wine's velvety tannins provide a smooth and elegant mouthfeel, while the well-integrated acidity adds freshness and structure. Altos de Luzón culminates in a long and persistent finish, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruits and subtle oak nuances. Enjoy it with grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses to fully experience its remarkable character.
