With prominent fruit intensity, it reveals layers of ripe black cherry, plum, and a hint of dried fig, complemented by earthy undertones and subtle oak. The tannins are firm yet refined, providing structure and ensuring a splendid aging potential. This exquisite wine is notably dry, making it a fantastic food-friendly companion, perfect for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.

While its reputation as a serious wine destination was eclipsed by France and Italy for many years, ignoring Spain today means missing out on some of the world's most exciting wines. Enjoying hundreds of miles of sun-kissed coastline and rocky interiors at higher elevations, Spain provides an ideal location for vineyards. Whether it is sparkling cavas from Catalonia, crisp Verdejos from Rueda, sublime Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero or inky Monastrells from Valencia, Spain has many wine styles to explore, all expressing the country's wildly unique terroir.
