El Gran Loco Bobal Requena
00020114
A step forward from an unoaked bobal, this is truly an elegant, versatile red. Not more than six months in French oak complement the natural fruity, expressive characteristic of this typical Valencian, i.e. Mediterranean, variety with more complex leathery, woody aromas. In summary, still quite easy to drink but layered with notes to withstand a more demanding situation like a square meal or celebration event.
