Tasting notes
- Colour: Golden yellow, medium intensity, very bright and with greenish hues. The rim shows grayish tones.
- Nose: Of great intensity and complexity given its long life. Sweet aromas stand out, with a background of ripe fruit and candied fruits. Notes of hay, cream and vanilla are prominent, complemented by aniseed nuances to reflect a full and lively nose.
- Palate: Its great creaminess surprises, fire-branded with vertical acidity and very pleasant, sweet lingering undertones. The minerally mouth feel accompanies a finish defined by the texture of the wood that infuses character and seriousness to a wine with a pleasant, elegant essence.
