the wine

Grown high on the northern edge of Castilla, where cold nights lock in freshness, this red is bold but never heavy. Ripe fruit, sweet spice, and a cool eucalyptus lift make it a rounded, satisfying pour. It is made for roast lamb and hearty winter cooking.

tasting notes
Red fruit, redcurrant and cherry with plum and cassis. Round oak aromas of spice, vanilla, cacao and fresh eucalyptus. Pleasant, with strong fruit and supple tannins, round, balanced and persistent. Aged 12 months in French oak.

from Clunia.

Clunia farms high-altitude vineyards on the northern edge of Castilla, where cold nights preserve freshness in bold, concentrated reds. The winery takes its name from a nearby Roman site.
