Muruve Crianza DO 2016 - Bodegas Frutos Villar

In the glass, the Muruve Crianza from Bodegas Frutos Villar presents a dense ruby red colour. At the edges, this Spanish red also shows a transition to garnet red. To the nose, this Bodegas Frutos Villar red wine presents all sorts of black currants, mulberries, blackberries and blueberries. As if that wasn't already impressive, gingerbread spice, vanilla and black tea join the mix due to the aging in small wooden barrels

The Bodegas Frutos Villar Muruve Crianza impresses with its elegantly dry taste. It was brought with only 1.6 grams of residual sugar on the bottle. This is a real quality wine, which clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so this Spaniard enchants with all dryness with the finest balance. Taste does not necessarily need a lot of sugar. Full of pressure and complex, this balanced red wine presents itself on the palate. Due to the moderate fruit acidity, the Muruve Crianza flatters with a pleasing mouthfeel, without lacking juicy liveliness at the same time. In the finish, this storable red wine from the wine-growing region Castile - León finally inspires with good length. Again, there are hints of mulberry and blueberry.
