Description
NOTE: WINE IS NOT FORTIFIED, IT IS A NATURAL SWEET WINE AND ALL ITS ALCOHOL IS NATURAL, COMING FROM GRAPES OF MONASTRELL. Made with a selection of Monastrell wines using the traditional ‘soleras and criaderas’ fractional blending system. A strictly ordered process is followed in the best and oldest oak barrels to obtain the quality and typical characteristics of this magnificent wine, whose solera madre was born in 1972. Coppery and ambar color denotes its maturity. It has complex aromas of rancid balsamic and nuts and in the palate is warm, soft and creamy.
