Tasting note
Grimalt Caballero 2011 is a juicy red wine with an expressive nose of ripe red and black fruits, mineral and wood notes and a herbaceous background. In the mouth it has a smooth attack, a pleasant and light mid palate with fruity notes and a well integrated acidity. The finish is long and with mineral touches.
