Sardón 2016 Tasting note
Sardón 2014 is a fruity wine that is shown to us as it is from the first moment. It starts intense on the nose with very fresh red fruits, notes of red licorice and cherries. In the mouth is greedy from the beginning, showing a good power fruit, refreshing step in the mouth and silky journey to finish in a light tannic touch. The ageing of used wood and the Lees ' work in the tanks make the drink long and touchy, preserving the vigor of the fruit from start to finish. It is a wine to enjoy from the moment of its corkage and in the coming years.
