Tasting note: A red wine with great personality. Complex aromas of very ripe fruit, licorice, and intense white flowers (especially lilies) are evident on the nose. Powerful on the palate, with an elegant tannin structure, supported by a lively, delicate acidity. Gentle decanting is recommended to fully appreciate all the nuances.
Food pairing: Perfect with game dishes, braised roasts, mushroom risotto, mature hard cheeses, or robust vegetarian dishes. An expressive wine for special occasions.

An Albariño from vines over 50 years old facing west towards the sea. After fermentation it spends six months on the fine lees in steel tanks and large oak casks. Then the bottles spend six months in crates twelve metres down in the Atlantic, by the artificial mussel beds of the rías. In the glass it is salty and juicy, with very fresh acidity. It costs CHF 89.
