2017 | DO TERRA ALTA

Precision led our ancestors to have a fixed measure as a standard in transactions. To guarantee the integrity and immutability of the all-important measure, they had the “house of weights” where the measures were kept under lock and key.  Although, with the passing of time the standards have changed, the responsibility and stringency are the same now as in years gone by.

TASTING NOTES

Red wine with intense color, tones of violet showing many layers. In the nose it presents a complex aroma of red fruits (raspberries, blueberries…), plum, raisins, cocoa and toasted coffee notes. Soft entry on the palate, sweet and voluptuous with well-rounded evolution with a tannin that has sweetness intensified by the alcohol. The finish and long aftertaste is reminiscent of cherry jam This is an unfiltered wine. Given its concentration it may produce precipitates.
