Tasting notes of Los Yelsones
Intense garnet colour.
Very expressive nose, with mineral touches and delicate aromas of small red fruits such as raspberries, cherries and forest strawberries.
Very elegant on the palate, with a pleasant texture. Good structure and slightly citric freshness. The finish is long and persistent.
