Selección "La Aguilera"
Deep crimson red with purple hues on the rim. Complex on the nose, with ripe black fruit, floral, balsamic (menthol) and scrubland notes. Great balance between primary and spicy aromas. The fruity, floral notes are characteristic of La Aguilera, as the elevation and location of the vineyards amidst the mountains of the Castilian plateau help the grapes to ripen well and provide great freshness and complexity. The palate is rich and powerful, with fruity notes, freshness, elegant tannins and excellent persistence on the finish.
