TASTING NOTES.
Color: Dark red with orange highlights.
Nose: Has incredibly fascinating aromas in which citrusy aromas of cedar peel, candied fruit, caramel, nuts and buttery notes emerge.
Palate: The palate is rich, velvety and warm. Complex and with balsamic notes. Great persistence. Matures in small old oak barrels.
PAIRINGS: Excellent at the end of a meal in combination with chocolate desserts.
FRUITY: Best served at 14/16°C.
VINIFICATION: Long maceration on the skins. Fermentation at a fairly high temperature of 30-32°C to give the wine a strong structure. Followed by interruption of fermentation (when still at least half of the sugars have not turned into alcohol) by addition of brandy.
