A hulk in a silk robe. Elegance is the unmistakable signature of Juan Andrés Marichal's work. It is remarkable how this muscled beast has been tamed, scoring points with great finesse. Everything has an air of ripeness and harmony. Aromas of dried fig and cherry with subtile vanilla notes are paired with a certain savoury kick reminiscent of black olives. Full and lush, yet still blessed with refreshing acidity. A good reason to close your eyes, brush off the hustle and bustle, and take in the bliss one sip at a time.
