Wine features: Wine of an elegant cherry red colour with tile-coloured rims whose aromas remind us of wet soil and red and black fruits in the country of La Vera, which hosted the Emperor. Its ageing aroma stands out with a medium, but warm, body. It has got a very intense nose with toasted tones from the wood very well combined with ripe fruit of a great intensity, all wrapped by spiced, well aged, leather tones which evoke cedar and cocoa. Silky in mounth, this wine is soft and elegant, with noble and slightly astringent tannins, very expressive and richness of sensations in the palate. Its taste olfactory amplitude and its balance harmony leave in the senses a inviting memory to which only giving in is possible.


Serving suggestions: It is an ideal wine for game, like pheasant, partridge or duck as well as goose, foie or pâté.
