KYSELA PERE ET FILS, LTD.

"The 2024 Luis XIV Ánforas is a young and light Mediterranean red produced with a blend of 75% Monastrell, 15% Giró, 5% Arcos and 5% Bonicaire with low extraction. It fermented in small stainless steel vats with indigenous yeasts—a must for all their wines—and aged in tinaja for six months. It's aromatic, floral, perfumed, elegant and very attractive. It has a juicy, medium-bodied palate, with good ripeness and 13.4% alcohol, and it keeps the freshness and balance with a pH of 3.63. It has fine tannins and is approachable and easy to drink. It's really delicious. 9,500 numbered bottles produced. - Luis GUTIERREZ"
