Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Can Blau is deep purple with a garnet rim. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This intense blend of Carignan, Grenache and Syrah carries some clean aromas of ripe black fruit, jammy fruit and liquorice, with dim remembrances of violets. On the background, some hints of vanilla and clove and notions of undergrowth and garrigue. |
| Palate | A creamy, meaty texture coats some succulent red fruit, with smoky nuances, mineral notes, and lively tannins that will mellow over time. This Crianza red wine of the Can Blau winery has a good acidity and a long, intense finish. |
| Our personal opinion | A nice red wine, Can Blau 2020 will pair very well with game dishes. |
