Tasting Notes
Open ruby color, nose with hints of alcoholic cherry, iodine and clove notes. In the mouth it is fresh, medium texture with a lot of salinity and fine tannins. It is a Volcanic Red.
The producer
The Azores archipelago, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, is made up of volcanic soils and has a deep maritime climate. Temperatures are mild throughout the year, despite the high level of precipitation and atmospheric humidity. Thus, vineyards must be planted in places where they are naturally sheltered or protected by human action. The corrals, are stone walls where the vineyards are planted that in this way are protected from the wind and the salty air of the sea.
Tasting Notes: Violet ruby colour, shows complex aroma of ripe red fruit, with notes of wood. Full of flavour, velvety, with soft tannins, presents long final proof, smooth and elegant.
Serving at: 16-18ºC.
