Dry red wine.
Blend Grenache Noir/Carignane from Southern France, Roussillon.
Organic, biodynamic cultivation, from old vines of low acreage yield to maturation in oak barrels.
With stunning intensity and complexity of fragrances on the nose.
Tight palate, with acidity, freshness, scents of spices, cherries, blackberries, minerality, roasted feel, elegant tannins, lengthy finish and 13.5% alcohol.
