This delicious Spanish Certified Organic Tempranillo is a brilliant, dark cherry red colour with a violet hue. Intense rich aromas of sweet strawberries, mature plums and raisins with a hint of tobacco, dark chocolate and minerals. Rich and juicy on the palate with fresh ripe berry fruits combined with gentle notes of toasted oak, refreshing acidity and soft velvet tannins. Full-bodied with a long aftertaste.
