Coto de Hayas Crianza 2021 (Spain)

Description

Floral, Oak, Spice

"Beautifully fruited and fragrant on the nose with notes of dark berry, star anise, clove, and toasted almonds. It's juicy and finely textured on the palate, displaying a rounded mouthfeel and fine tannins, leading to a lingering, savoury finish. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit June 2026

Intense red colour with violet tones; clean and bright. Medium and complex intensity with spicy and fruity aftertaste. The palate is smooth, wide, and harmonic with a long finish.
