Lealtanza Único
Altanza’s most terroir-oriented Crianza, a modern-style wine. Concentrated, nice structure and great cellaring potential. Ideal for appetizers and skewers made mainly with sausages, meats and cheeses; it also goes well with oily fish or smoked salmon, and even with desserts made with dark chocolate.
100% Tempranillo.
14 % vol.
13-14º C.
Aging
12 months in new French oak barrels, followed by 2 more months in French oak foudres.
Tasting Notes
Deep, intense ruby colour with a garnet core. An expressive, elegant bouquet of liquorice, ripe cherry and plum, beautifully integrated with aromas of new French oak, vanilla, spices and balsamic notes. On the palate, it delivers remarkable length and persistence for a Crianza, combining a silky texture with a complex and harmonious aromatic profile.
Pairing
A perfect wine to enjoy with appetizers based on sausages, cold meats and cheese, and many other dishes like baked blue fish or smoked salmon. Suggestion: slow cooked pork cheek in red wine sauce.
