FERRATUS AO Tempranilllo 2016
This medium-aged Tempranillo speaks of life and energy with its purple-tinged picota cherry red colouring. Subtlety and complexity from its time in the barrel (tobacco, chocolate and vanilla) make FERRATUS AØ (read it as a-cero, Spanish for steel) a rounded, contemporary, avant-garde style wine with the strength it needs to be considered a real discovery.
