The wine
The Moro family and Imanol Arias are behind this Ribera project that has succeeded in winning considerable praise. The wine is boldly aromatic, full of nuances and subtleties, and ready to awaken the senses by pushing new boundaries.
A vivid, dark cherry-red colour with bluish hues on the rim, it has a powerful and varietal nose that exhibits fine oak-ageing notes with balsamic and mineral hints. Finely structured and concentrated on the palate, the wine shows much evidence of meaty, elegant tannins.
Aged for 14 months in French (85%) and American (15%) oak barrels.
