Esencia

2010 Vino De La Tierra De Castilla Syrah & Merlot

Albae Esencia is an exquisite red wine that beautifully marries the rich, dark fruit character of Syrah with the elegance of Merlot. Hailing from the Vino De La Tierra De Castilla region, this 2010 vintage showcases a medium-bodied profile, enticing with its well-balanced acidity that adds a refreshing lift to the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, with luscious notes of blackberry and plum, accompanied by subtle hints of spice and chocolate. The tannins are medium, providing a smooth structure that enhances the overall mouthfeel without overwhelming the fruit. As a dry wine, Albae Esencia is a delightful choice for those seeking a refined and satisfying experience, perfect for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.
