Triga 75cl 2017

85% Monastrell, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Triga is de topwijn van bodegas Volver 

Triga heeft 20 maanden gerijpt op Frans en Amerikaans eiken.
Triga is een complexe krachtige wijn. Rijp fruit, "roasted tones", kruiden, prachtige tannines en smakelijke, wat rokerige afdronk. 
Nu al op dronk, maar kan zich tenminste tot 2027 nog verder ontwikkelen.

Wine Advocate:

'Triga is a selection of the best vineyards they have in Alicante, a blend of Monastrell with 15% Cabernet Sauvignon fermented in stainless steel and matured in French barriques for 20 months, where it also undergoes malolactic. It's always a ripe and powerful wine, with 15.5% alcohol. Tasty and spicy, generously oaked, with good ripeness and very clean and balanced in its XL style. There is a segment of the public that wants wines like this, while others will find it too oaky. It's very good in its style'
