Description

"Beautifully fruited and modern, the inviting bouquet shows Black Doris plum, mixed berry compote, warm spice and dried herb characters, leading to a succulent palate that is plump and lingering. The wine offers up front appealing with a lingering silky finish. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2019

This wine displays a deep, cherry red colour in the glass, with violet hues. On the nose, it shows rich notes of fresh fruit (black cherry, plum) and an elegant herbal touch. This wine is really smooth on the palate, extremely fruity with velvety tannins and a long finish. 

This wine is 100% organic Monastrell, grown in vines of an average age of 25 years old. The pruning was short, with bush-trained and trellis vines. The harvest occurred in the first week of October 2018 and fermented for 10 days at a temperature of 28 degrees, in stainless steel tanks. 

This wine is vegan friendly! 

Food Pairing: Pair with pizza, rich tomato sauces and savoury cheese. Spicy chicken wings are also a great match as are blue rich salmon and even grilled sardines!

Fabulous value for money. Enjoy that "European" flavour. Goes with everything!
