More about this wine from Castilla y León, Spain
Prieto Picudo is a dark-skinned grape, "prieto" can be translated to “dark-skinned” in Spanish, you probably haven’t heard of before as it’s mainly grown in the León region of Spain. The grape is typically used to make light and fresh rosés or it can also be found blended with Tempranillo as is the case with this tasty wine!

Spicy reds are what dreams are made of year-round. They warm your soul when the streets are frozen and ignite the warm air of summer. Either way, it’s a win-win. Very bright with an energized nose complete with floral notes like setting a baby blue bridal bouquet on fire. Whiffs of nutmeg are tightly wound up in wet black tea leaves with a palate that transports you to warmer air and wet wooden planks after a mid-summer rain.
How to drink it

Pro Tip:

 Sitting on wooden floors inhaling relief, exhaling peace.
