A real surprise! Who in their right mind could expect so much quality from a Cab Franc-Tempranillo blend from Penedes? But try it and we guarantee you’re going to like it. The nose is meaty, ripe and round, while the palate features pure core fruit backed by chocolaty warmth. With kick as well as subtlety, this is a bargain hunter’s dream.
