Balbás Barrica is a contemporary red wine that fully demonstrates the versatility of Tempranillo to reach new horizons beyond its evident freshness and fragrant, exuberant aromatic potential.
A reddish colour with a marked violet rim, fruity notes appear over a light vanilla background. The mid-palate is wonderfully balanced, confirming that the character of the Tempranillo grape can achieve unimagined heights with the application of scrupulous vinification techniques and careful ageing in oak.
