Tasting Notes
Some leather and bitter chocolate, juniper, dark berries with air, classic Crianza aroma with a slight note of ageing. Strong attack on the palate, alcoholic, slightly grainy tannin, smooth base, good palate fruit, rather tight acid support, has good length. Needs food and can benefit from a carafe, clearly gains in the glass.
