· Visual stage
High depth, where maroon tones dominate in a clean, bright background, reflecting its youth. The abundance of legs in the glass denotes the potency of the alcohol and a very unctuous mouth.

· Olfactory stage
The attack reveals the best of new oak: toasted scents with spicy backgrounds. Fruit aromas that evoke ripe blackberries mixed with raspberries and cranberries.

· Tasting stage
Moderate acidity. A round, well-structured wine over the sweet, velvety tannins characteristic of the Tempranillo varietal. A smooth mid-palate at first, with a long, elegant finish.
