El Tío del Carro 2017

Cherry red in colour and offers overt aromas of ripe forest fruits, candied violets and black cherry. On the palate, it is fleshy and expressive with a discreet undercoat of spice. A wine you can sink your teeth into.

This wine calls for an array of meaty dishes but will also impress when spicy dishes and roasted root vegetables are served up. Excellent with feta and spinach spanakopita, honey glazed pork ribs, middle eastern tagine.

Best served at 15 – 18°C.
