Tasting Notes: Código Soltíscio 2022
With its bright ruby garnet colour and expressive nose of black berries and plum mixed with hints of red bell pepper, the Solsticio is a straightforward dry red wine. Its lively palate with moderate tannins and high, refreshing acidity combined with medium 12.5% alcohol make it a juicy an energetic red. Not very complex but a well-made, easy-drinking wine. The kind of bottle you take with you to sip at sunset on the beach.
