Frontaura Crianza 2018 represents a genuine expression of the Tinta de Toro variety, renowned in D.O. Toro and recognized for its international quality. Produced by Bodegas Frontaura & Victoria, this wine reflects the character of the terroir, with vineyards planted on loamy-clay soils that provide depth and vitality. The 13-month aging in French oak barrels adds complexity and elegance, allowing the fruit and variety to shine. Aromatically, it shows notes of ripe red fruit, flowers, and licorice, complemented by delicate balsamic hints, nuts, and toffee. On the palate, it is silky and balanced, with a structure supported by polished tannins. It is recommended to serve at a temperature between 16 and 18 ºC, pairing perfectly with grilled meats, roasted lamb, suckling pig, and aged cheeses. This wine is an excellent companion for traditional stews and game dishes, where its complexity and structure can be fully appreciated.
