Sale!95 point Decanter award winner, 6 bottles including delivery "This Crianza is packed with ripe cherry and plum, subtle oak spice, and a smooth, silky finish that makes it a perfect pairing for grilled meats & hearty pastas. This is quite a grown up wine, but with beautifully integrated, soft juicy tannins."
