Classic aromatics, lingering fruit notes in the background. Some coffee, plum and spices. Medium weight palate with good length. Faustino I from an excellent year.

More about the tasting

Reminiscent of precious woods and tobacco. Intense notes of eucalyptus. Rich palate with supple fullness and ripe, extract-sweet melting. Contains fine-pored tannins in the long finish. A dozen spicy pinchos please.
