Clio Red wine

Clio , a remarkable red wine from Bodegas El Nido, embodies the essence of the Jumilla region with its rich blend of Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The 2022 vintage showcases a perfect balance between power and elegance, with an alcohol content of 15.5%. This wine undergoes an impressive aging process of 22-26 months in new French and American oak barrels, allowing it to develop a character that is both complex and inviting.

Upon pouring, Clio presents a deep cherry color with a garnet rim, exuding brilliance and clarity. The wine's legs are abundant, fine, and elegant, indicating its luxurious nature. On the nose, it reveals an intense and clean bouquet characterized by ripe black fruits that take on a compote-like quality, intertwined with enticing notes of spice, cocoa, coffee, and licorice. Subtle herbaceous and toasted hints add an impressive depth to its aromatic profile.

In the mouth, Clio delivers a powerful, broad, and voluminous entry, with a lengthy, smooth, and flavorful finish. Its full-bodied character is complemented by fantastic acidity and elegant tannins, culminating in an exceptionally long and persistent aftertaste. While this wine has excellent aging potential, we recommend decanting it a couple of hours before serving to fully appreciate its splendor.

Clio pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, enhancing meals featuring grilled lamb, roasted lamb, grilled red meats, game birds, goat and sheep cheeses, as well as exquisite Jamón Ibérico de Bellota and beef. With its strong personality and the ability to evolve gracefully in the bottle, Clio is undoubtedly a must-have for any wine lover's collection.
