  • Colour:

    Its golden hues stand out due to its extended aging period. Medium-high in intensity, it maintains a special brightness in the glass as a result of its great liveliness and shows certain grayish nuances at the rim.

    Nose:

    Extremely delicate, highly intense and particularly complex. It represents the blending over time of the primary floral notes of the grape with the more complex tones of leaf litter and vanilla provided by a barely toasted barrel. All these notes are enveloped in sweet and creamy nuances that have been integrated into the wine during its prolonged maturation in the bottle.

    Palate:

    Its enveloping acidity stands out throughout. With a narrow mid-palate and an eternal finish, it is a faithful example of the legendary fine wines of Rioja. Austere on entry, but with great elegance, it is a wine that constantly makes you salivate, generating a silky and pleasant dimension.
