The aging of this wine lasts a total of 20 months and is produced in new French oak barrels.

Contador tasting note

• Nose: In addition to ripe red and black fruits, the balsamic character and aromatic herbs (thyme, rosemary, lavender, fennel) stand out. It also shows a marked mineral character with a background of very fine and well integrated woods.
• Mouth: it is fine and powerful at the same time, as well as very voluminous. A great balance between fruit and oak stands out. Long and intense final aftertaste. Very ripe and tasty.
