Tintafina Magnum Tasting Notes:
Color: At first glance, Tintafina Casa Rojo is presented with an intense cherry red color, bordered by violet reflections that highlight its youth and vitality. Its high, bright layer anticipates a wine of great concentration and body.
Aroma: On the nose, this red wine displays a rich aromatic palette dominated by ripe black fruits such as plum and blackberry, complemented by spicy notes of black pepper, cloves and a subtle hint of liquorice. The ageing in barrels adds complexity with nuances of vanilla, cocoa and a slight toasted note.
Taste: On the palate, Tintafina Casa Rojo is robust and well structured. The tannins are silky and well integrated, providing an enveloping texture that perfectly balances the fresh acidity. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a pleasant impression of ripe fruits and a subtle mineral touch that reflects its origin.
