Its flavour profile is robust yet balanced, exhibiting notes of ripe fruit and a delicate hint of soft tannins. The full-bodied acid and refreshing finish make it an ideal companion for a hearty meal. The Herència Altés Cupatge is perfect for those appreciating intensity along with a lingering smooth aftertaste.
