Deep violet to the eye, this wine offers a nose of cherry, purple fig and saddle leather. Bright at first sip, it has flavors of pomegranate and raspberry. Slightly hefty tannins settle into the palate, with notes of milk chocolate, cherry pipe tobacco and black-olive paste. Bright fruit remains at the forefront, lingering in the mouth.

It covers soils developed on various types of relief and different materials with a climate marked by the influence if the Urbasa and Andia Mountain ranges. The harvest is carried out between the last week of September and the first week of October, taking advantage of the coolness of the morning to preserve the aromas and keep the grapes in perfect condition. Once in the cellar, after alcohol fermentation, a part of the wine spends a short period in the barrel, between 4 and 6 months.
