ILUSTRE Red
2018 | Marel
Grape Varieties – Alicante Bouschet and Touriga-Nacional
Visually it presents an intense garnet ruby color with violet and bright nuances.
In the aroma there is a remarkable aromatic richness, notes of ripe black fruit and dark chocolate, with floral notes of lavender and ripe strawberry. This entire fruit profile is integrated with subtle earthy notes. Great concentration and intensity.
In the mouth, it has a great balance. The evident tannins are tamed by the clay. The concentration and breadth are remarkable, with an impressive mouth volume. It is rich and textured, finishing long and pleasant.
Additional information
Pairings | Due to its intensity and concentration, with evident tamed tannins, it is a wine for dishes rich in protein – well-seasoned grilled meats, oven dishes and slow cooking. Also a good partner for cured cheeses and regional charcuterie – chorizos, loins, ham. If we add good company and good conversation to this, we will have a great time at the table. |
