Essential sweet wine made from overripe grapes of the Mataró variety (monastrell). The best grapes, selected grain by grain, macerate for 6 months, then they are pressed and the aging of two months in the barrel begins. In the glass is a delight with aromas of violets and licorice, figs and orange peel. Surprised in the mouth its fine tannicity and delicate memories of cocoa powder. Addictive and sensual.
