This is very good value with rich red fruit, a medium bodied wine with distinct rich cherry/blackcurrant flavour and a nice long finish. Despite being a young wine, it has good body and simple aromatics, highly recommended with meats and great with strong cheeses. Protos Crianza wine is made from 100% Tinta del País (Tempranillo). The grapes come from vineyards planted in poor soils, low in organic matter and with a sandy texture. Tasting Notes: Color: Cherry color with purple rim indicating youth. Nose: High aromatic intensity, with aroma of ripe fruits well assembled with wood that brings aromas of sweet spices and pleasant toasted notes. Palate: It is an enveloping wine, tasty, balanced, with finesse and pleasant maturity. End of mouth with memories of ripe fruit. Food Pairing: Roasted vegetables and meats, carpaccio, fabada, Iberian ham. 100% Tempranillo (Tinta del Pais)
