Guía Peñín – 2018

Vintage 2014

A good year, without a lack of rain, moderate temperatures and the typical dry summer. A hot, rainy September complicated the harvest and a careful selection of the grapes was required, which ended up with a very good tannin structure, concentration of tastes, and refreshing acidity.
