Tasting Note: The Alkina Old Quarter 2022 blend of Grenache, Shiraz, and Mataro showcases a deep ruby red colour with garnet hues, reflecting its depth and complexity. The nose is rich and aromatic, offering a bouquet of red and dark fruits, including raspberry, blackberry, and plum, accented by hints of dried herbs, black pepper, and a touch of earthy spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-rounded, with concentrated flavours of ripe red berries, dark cherries, and a hint of licorice, complemented by subtle oak and a touch of chocolate. The tannins are firm yet smooth, leading to a long, layered finish with lingering notes of spice and dark fruit.
