About this wine

With the entry of Benjamín’s brothers into the project, a new, more affordable wine began to be produced, called ‘El Predicador” (Preacher) in homage to Clint Eastwood’s character in the film ‘The Pale Horseman’. This blend comes from the youngest vines in the winery, aged between 20 and 35 years. It stands out for its balance and ripe tannin, and is fresh, unctuous and long.
