Faustino's Icon Edition Gran Reserva 2017 is a Tempranillo that is clean, bright and has a deep, intense cherry red colour. On the nose, the wine is intense and complex with warm, ripe forest fruits aromas, spicy notes and hints of wood in the background. The palate is elegant, full of flavor and structured with well integrated and polished tannins, providing a balanced mouth-feel. Finally, the finish is complex, rich and long-lasting.

Food pairings: Any kind of meat. Matches well with grilled or fried potatoes, mushrooms and ham, as well as tasty or oily fish such as tuna or cod. Very nice with rice, all kinds of pasta, medium-aged cheese and berry desserts.

Deep violet red in the glass, this wine has a bouquet of dark berries, mint tea, cedar and caramel. It is simultaneously fresh and complex, offering flavors of black cherry, bittersweet chocolate, eucalyptus and lavender flavors smothered in plush tannins whose intensity is evened out by just the right touch of acidity. Drink through 2034.
