Surprising #pinotnoir blend with #hondarribibeltza it was exactly what we were looking for for the first dishes of many. Light and crisp and floral and paired well with fish.

Love this , and you wouldn’t expect a red from this area . 60% Pinot Noir . Beautiful nose , a tiny bit less oak and it would have been perfect. Nice acidity and long

A touch of oak, bit otherwise delightful. Huertas probably helps.

Слива, черника, ежевика и шелковица с легкой копченостью, землистостью и еще чуть шершавыми танинами. Иногда пробивается шоколад. Пино нуар на стероидах. Интересно, чуть грубовато.
