The Barbazul Tinto by Huerta de Albala from the Spanish wine region Tierra de Cadiz in Andalusia is a melting, powerful and finesse red wine cuvée vinified from the Tintilla de Rota, Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot grape varieties.
In the glass, this wine has an elegant, deep ruby red with purple highlights. The nose enjoys a small fireworks display of red, juicy fruits. Raspberries, red currants, heart cherries and some plum are revealed. The fruity aroma is perfectly accompanied by spicy notes. On the palate, this Spanish red wine convinces with an explosive power, which is underlined by a great density and melting texture. The finale completes this cuvée with a great, lasting reverberation.
