Castillo de San Simon Shiraz

Letting the wine breath before serving is recommended to soften the tannins and open up the flavors.

Tasting note

This wine looks deep and bright purple color. The smell is very fruity on the nose. Ripe cherry and blackcurrant are combined with hints of black pepper, reminding the warm latitude where it was born.

 

Taste: Again fruity, jammy and powerful on the palate. Good backbone and a lingering finish. A wine to enjoy by the glass or with an aperitif.

Winemaking

This wine has been produced with the best Jumilla D.O. grapes. After an eight-day maceration at 28ºC in stainless steel tanks, the wine is decanted to complete its fermentation. After this it undergoes malolactic fermentation so that the wine is considered finished, microbiologically speaking. It is them kept for a year in tanks undergoing three decantings before aging begins. This Reserva is aged for twelve months in American oak barrels, another twelve months in French oak barrels from Allier and six months in bottle
