Characteristics:
The nose is matured and youthful at the same time. It offers discrete roasted notes and an aroma of yellow fruit. It has a firm, full mouth feel with a longer aftertaste. It also gives us distinct acidity, saltiness and a mineral note, which cleans the mouth. After three or four years and with the development of tertiary aromas, it becomes even more complete and excellent than it was in its youth.
Food pairings: The wine goes well with fish and appetizers which do not carry too intensive aromas.
