Pasion de Bobal Vintage:2023Barrel fermented Bobal from high altitude vineyards near Valencia. An open, warm and spicy, nose with blackberry, raspberry and plum notes. The palate has lots of sour cherry, strawberry and creamy oak characters. A generous and appealing wine with supple tannins for structure all balanced by juicy acidity and spice. The 67 hectare Finca Fuenteseca estate lies in Utiel Requena, a high, rugged plateau, nearly 1,000 metres above sea level just inland
