Ampeleia UnLitro 2020 Natural

Grenache + Carignan + Alicante Bouschet

Contrasting finish with pleasantly bitter notes of cherries and wild strawberries. Even better: comes in a 1-liter bottle! to enjoy it at its best. We recommend you let it “breathe” for 15-20 minutes and chill it for 45 minutes (not too cold) before serving.
