El Alma de Gildo - Tinta de Toro
A beautiful and incredibly intense cherry red colour leads the way to a complex and intense nose showing hints of red and black berries, "monte bajo" in Spanish which is a blend of the wild herbs grown naturally around the vineyards. On the palate, it is big, bold and intense with fine tannins and a beautiful texture that requires food. The very fine oak sits perfectly behind the incredible quality of the Tinta de Toro grape.
