Castell D'Encus Acusp
This wine grows at a high altitude (1000m), which gives it freshness and elegance. Made from Pinot Noir, it is showing the purity and characteristics of the grape variety beautifully. Bright red fruits, hints of spice with well-balanced acidity, and a long finish. Extremely food-friendly so it pairs well with a variety of dishes such as pork loin, roast beef, or curry but it is also perfect on its own.
