Los Aguilares Tadeo Tinaja
75cl
Produced in very small quantities only, this organic red wine, made from 100% Petit Verdot, expresses a unique facet of the grape, earthy, floral, and mineral. It is aged in clay amphoras, which softens the tannins and gives the wine purity and intensity. It pairs exceptionally well with lamb, but is also gorgeous with beef, pork, or mature hard cheese.
