The palate is smooth, fresh, and persistent, offering red cherry, gentle earth, and a lifted acidity that reflects the winery’s traditional, long‑aging style. The overall profile is elegant, savory, and unmistakably old‑school Rioja.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roasted meats, tapas, charcuterie, and simple Spanish dishes.
