Tasting Note

Ámbar de Viñateros de Raíz," a Tawny-style fortified wine, is an explosion of aromas reminiscent of fig, sponge cake, honey, candied almonds, and hazelnuts. On the palate, it offers a luscious attack with notes of creamy chocolate, honey, syrupy figs, and a subtle hint of tobacco, all combined with a wonderful balance and perfect acidity that sustains its vibrant elegance until the end.
