Aroa Jauna Crianza
DO Navarra, Spain (40% Cab/Sauv, 30%Tempranillo, 26% Merlot, 4% Garnacha Red) 750 ml Certified Organic Aroa Jauna is a modern, elegant and agile wine. With a perfect harmony between alcohol and acidity, it is the reflection of its terroir it is born in, fresh and at altitude. Aroa is a boutique winery that has pioneered the restoration of traditional winemaking practices in the DO Navarra. All of the vineyards are organic and are cared for using our ancestral methods, only using natural products and only allowing nature to reach its fullest expression in the grapes. TASTING NOTES It is a deep, dark very intense shade of red with great brilliance. The aroma is clean and reminiscent of ripe fruits composed mainly of pears, sweet apples and quince. This gives way to aromas of cacao, dry leaves and leather. On the palate it is tasty and agile, with well integrated tannins..

For drinking lightly chilled with appetizers or whenever you like”. (GASTROACTITUD Federico Oldemburg. http://www.gastroactitud.com/modulo/bar/vinos/crash-red-2012/50.html). “And this time, here and now, means we have to talk about Crash, the rebellious child, the wine that was born to provoke. (…) But don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it’s a wine for young people, it’s not. Crash is a wine that can be read in different ways, that has different layers. Like a good book.
