In the glass
Aroma: dark cherry, cassis, incense, cedar
Palate: concentrated dark fruit, cedar spice, graphite, polished tannins
Milagros de Figuero is a second prestige expression from Garcia Figuero, drawing from a different old-vine parcel at La Horra: concentrated dark fruit, incense and cedar with polished tannins from 18 months in French oak.
What it pairs with
-
Roast rack of Castilian lamb
Polished concentrated tannins and dark fruit are a natural companion for aromatic roast lamb. -
Slow-braised beef short ribs
The wine's concentration and cedar spice match slow-cooked richly braised ribs. -
Manchego viejo with honey
Dark fruit and polished tannins are lifted by the saline-sweet aged cheese and honey.
History
Milagros de Figuero is Garcia Figuero's second prestige single-vineyard label, produced from a specifically selected old-vine parcel at La Horra separate from the Tinus vineyard. The name translates to 'Miracles of Figuero', reflecting the estate's pride in La Horra's natural endowment.
