Casa de Santar Doc 75cl

Casa de Santar

With a clear appearance, it displays an intense ruby colour. The aroma is dominated by the power of macerated red fruits, blackberry jam, with toasted notes, coffee roast and balsamic hints provided by 6 months of oak ageing. On the palate, it reveals silkiness, a strong presence of ripe fruit, showing the elegance of a versatile and complete wine. At the table, it pairs beautifully with regional meat dishes, charcuterie, game, roasted fish or intense and mature cheeses.
