Colour: Bright and brilliant ruby red. Bouquet: Very elegant because of the moderate herbaceous note and the clear raspberry scent. Taste: Dry, full-bodied but velvet-smooth. Gastronomic matches: Ideal with cold cuts, red meats, poultry and game.

Colour: Bright ruby red. Bouquet: Intense, inviting and vinous, with pleasant violet, dandelion and ripe red fruit scents. Taste: Dry, well-balanced, of great tannic balance. Gastronomic matches: It is a classic wine for the entire meal, that easily compliments first dishes with tomato or meat sauces, meat roasts, mixed boiled meat, cold cuts and cheeses.
The colour is an inviting lively ruby. The nose, of cherries and nectarines, is fragrant and convincing. In the mouth the wine moves juicily towards the close, while remaining enjoyably refreshing.
