From La Mancha’s sun-drenched regions, the 2021 Finca Antigua Crianza Merlot stands out for its lush, fruit-forward character and rich complexity. Vibrant plum and red berry notes dominate the palate, complemented by chocolate and spice cake undertones. aged for 11 months in French oak barrels, this wine achieves a smooth, full-bodied texture with a touch of toasted warmth. Its balanced acidity and rounded tannins make it an excellent pairing for barbecue, grilled vegetables, pasta with hearty red sauces, or a juicy burger. It is best served slightly below room temperature to bring out its nuanced flavors.
