Tasting Notes for Valtuille Villegas:
Appearance: Bright cherry red with violet reflections, clean and with good density in the glass.
Nose: Intense aromas of fresh red fruit (cherries, raspberries, and plums), with notes of undergrowth, spices (black pepper), and a smoky touch from its barrel aging.
