The 2021 vintage is aged for 26 months in American oak barrels, which adds a layer of spice and oak complexity while retaining fruit purity. The palate is medium to full-bodied with elegant, well-integrated oak, fine & silky tannins and a bright acidity.

The 2021 Rioja is elegant and fresh, offering notes of ripe plum and red cherry that are complemented by liquorice and spicy balsamic notes. The wine is full-bodied, with a structured freshness and precise acidity. There is a subtle oak influence, with layered notes of cedar, vanilla, clove and sweet spices. Silky, well-integrated tannins provide a smooth and velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long and persistent with touches of wild berries and a light mineral touch.
