Wine profile
Color: Deep cherry with a lively purple rim.
Nose: Fresh strawberry, raspberry, and red berry fruit rise from the glass.
Palate: Round and almost velvety in texture, with a lush, fruit-forward mid-palate. The finish is long, echoing fresh red fruits with a touch of elegant oak.
Winemaking & maturation
Crafted with a emphasis on purity and minimal intervention: cold pre-fermentation, temperature-controlled fermentation using native yeasts, and two months of aging in new 500L American oak barrels. From vine to bottle, the process is designed to preserve the grape’s natural balance and express the estate’s character.
Tasting notes & food pairing
This wine offers accessible depth without heaviness, making it a versatile table companion. Pair it with a range of dishes that match its fruit-forward profile and gentle oak influence:
- Grilled vegetables and roasted peppers
- Lamb chops or roasted pork with herbs
- Tomato-based pastas and mushroom risotto
- Spanish tapas, charcuterie, and aged cheeses
Best enjoyed slightly below room temperature to fully reveal its balance and aromatics. A solid everyday red that delivers more character with every sip, while remaining approachable and affordable.
