Very fleshy, showing plums and red berries alongside a subtle herbal note. The palate is rich yet restrained, savory and textured, with fine-grained, chewy tannins that add focus.

The 2023 La Vizcaína La Poulosa is a little more rustic than the other reds from La Vizcaína range; it's a little earthy and has slightly dusty tannins. It comes from 2.2 hectares on clay soils, and the grapes ripen very early. It's one of the oldest vineyards in the village and tends to give low yields and concentrated wines. All the reds from Vizcaína fermented with 100% full clusters with 40 days of maceration and aged in old 500-liter barrels (from 2014 to 2015) for some 11 months and without racking until the following harvest...

Garnet tones, cherry and red fruit aromas with soft floral notes. It balances richness with firm tannins, creating compact elegance and depth from extended maceration and neutral oak aging.
