Cherry red with purple reflections. Medium-high layer and abundant tears. Elegant and complex in the nose, with spicy notes of red berries and forest blueberries.
It is unctuous and well structured, with mineral sensations in the mouth, which clearly evokes the noble landscapes of Valdeorras. Long and deep red fruit aftertaste.

  • Grapes: Mencía, Sousón and Old Garnachas.
  • Suggested serving temperature: 18º C – 20º C
