Tasting Notes: 

There’s a creamy hint on the nose that’s well paired with hints of spice and smoke, dark wild berries and a hint of earthiness, with something reminiscent of tree bark. Although it is more accessible than most Prieto Picudo, its youthfulness causes it to display abundant powdery tannins that provide a dry sensation on the palate and a dry finish. This should age effortlessly and can be enjoyed with potent foods.
