Patricia Chica Vino de Pago 2024

Patricia Chica Vino de Pago 2024 is a characterful Spanish red wine that combines ripe fruit, structure and elegance. The wine is made from four grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Garnacha, Merlot and Tempranillo. This blend brings together different characteristics, resulting in a wine with both depth and smoothness.

Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure and gives the wine dark fruit flavours, firmness and subtle spicy notes. Garnacha adds ripe red fruit, warmth and juiciness, while Merlot contributes a soft, rounded texture with flavours of plum and ripe berries. Tempranillo brings freshness, elegance and a distinctly Spanish character to the blend. Together, these four varieties create a balanced and versatile red wine.

The wine has a deep ruby-red colour with dark purple hues. On the nose, aromas of ripe blackcurrants, cherries and plums are prominent. Oak ageing adds further complexity, bringing subtle notes of vanilla, cedar, cocoa and warm spices. Delicate herbal and earthy nuances appear in the background, adding depth without overpowering the fruit.
