A slope (un talud) leading up to a mountain where centuries of rock falls have left the soil beneath full of large angular rocks, and therefore useless for most uses – but perfect drainage for vines to bed down into while drawing up minerals.

Talud is very elegant and fresh on the nose with lots of black fruits. The use of 18 months French oak ageing makes a wonderful contribution and causing complexity. On the palate it is silky and firm with tannins. A well balanced fresh wine packed with blackcurrants, black cherries and spice that lead all the way to a persistent finish.
