Description:

Bright ruby ​​red in color with garnet highlights, it presents a rich and complex bouquet on the nose, ranging from ripe red fruits—raspberry and blackberry—to delicate floral notes of acacia, enriched with balsamic notes that lend aromatic depth. On the palate, it is immediately dry and harmonious, with a fleshy, velvety structure that demonstrates great balance. The texture is dense and enveloping, supported by ripe, well-integrated tannins that lend elegance without being aggressive. The finish is long and persistent, with a pleasant fruity aftertaste. Ideal paired with complex red meats such as roast veal liver with apples and onions, ossobuco Milanese, chicken braised in red wine, or lamb stew with chickpeas and dried figs.

Fil-Loxera & Cia represents the pinnacle of Valencian viticulture, operating in a growing region characterized by a warm Mediterranean climate that enhances the native varieties. Vinification involves separate fermentation for each variety in small 750-liter vats using only indigenous yeasts at a controlled temperature, followed by a short maceration of 7-10 days to preserve the fruity freshness. Malolactic fermentation takes place 50% in barriques and 50% in stainless steel, while maturation occurs in a mixture of stainless steel and wood for 8 months in contact with the fine lees, giving the wine complexity and roundness without excessive oak.
