About Pazo das Bruxas Albarino
An intensely aromatic wine displaying distinctive fruit notes of green apple and lemon peel with clean undertones of hay. Fresh on the palate, sweet and soft upon entry and culminating in a long, elegant finish.
About Celeste Tempranillo
Intense aromas of wild blackberries and blueberry jam with toasted and spicy notes, such as pink peppercorn, and exciting undertones of hot wax and exquisitely fine oak. Round, velvety and mature, it envelops the palate in its perfume.
About Salmos Red Blend
Wonderfully intense on the nose, with predominant notes of dark cherry and plum jam, against mentholated eucalyptus backdrop and notes of toast. Sweet on entry, very velvety palate, and well structured, culminating in an elegant, fresh finish.
About Mas La Plana Cabernet Sauvignon
The intense aroma displays the classic typicity of the Mas La Plana terroir, along with notes of toast, white chocolate, and spices such as clove and pepper. Full, voluminous, and lively on the palate. Mature tannins promise a bright future and excellent aging potential.
About Torres 20 Brandy
Fine, dark amber-colored. A deep, warm aroma, with traces of dried fruit and nuts. It exhibits elegant hints of spices such as vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. It is round, intensely velvety and lush on the palate, with a lingering aftertaste typical of its noble origin and aristocratic ageing.
