Fondillón made with dry-farmed, head-pruned Monastrell grapes, grown in a sunny, slightly south-facing vineyard. It stands out for the age of its century-old vines, which, combined with the 50 years the grapes spend in Canadian oak barrels, create an unparalleled flavor capable of encapsulating the very essence of the city of Alicante in a single sip. This Fondillón is based on the most valuable intangible in our lives: time, with the aim of creating, here and now, the nostalgia of our future. Its provocative aroma and persistent flavor make time stand still, allowing us to appreciate the pleasure of enjoying the present moment. Singularity and exclusivity forge a profound connection in this wine steeped in history.
p>Appearance: The amber color is striking, with light walnut highlights defining the rim. Good density. It flows slowly in the glass, leaving ample, visible tears.
Nose: An intense aroma of oxidative evolution, a complex of overripe, toasted, and sun-dried fruits. Fig bread and candied fruits, freshly baked almonds and hazelnuts, compotes, and luscious jams. An eternal persistence of aged and honeyed aromas that linger for many hours on the palate and hands.
Palate: A superb flavor. Exquisite tension between its perfectly integrated alcohol, high total acidity, and residual sugars that give it an avocado-like character. It tastes of soft honey and caramel, a pure concentration of old oak, mahogany, and oriental spices. A grand, concentrated, and sophisticated finish of red Monastrell raisins. An evocation of bygone times, a secretaire, and a library. Mahogany ink and manuscripts with centuries-old leather spines.
