Tasting notes
A rich amber colour with pale mahogany highlights, right from the outset this 10-year-old Tawny releases a superb aromatic palate, starting with notes of almond, walnut, fig, dried fruits, currants and orange confit before developing notes of torrefaction, wood and resin. In the mouth it shows the same complexity, overlaid on a rich, deep, concentrated structure which is sustained by a wonderful acidity. It then develops with great vigour and integrity towards a finish of exceptional length which leaves very elegant flavours in the mouth.
Vinification
Very traditional, in granit vats (Lagares). Pressing is done by foot, which enables the content of the grapes to be extracted in a very gentle and controlled way
Aging
In casks (“pipas”) of 600 litres
