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.
