What it pairs with

  • Slow-roasted whole lamb
    The wine's power and mineral complexity are scaled to the grandest Castilian roasts.
  • Venison loin with berries
    Game and dark berry in the wine create a rich harmony.
  • Aged Manchego Viejo
    Long-aged hard cheese amplifies the wine's mineral and dark-fruit intensity.
