Overview of the Wine
A collaborative effort between La Competencia Imports and Freixenet de Mexico, this brand is exclusively available in the U.S. The goal is simple, craft a collection of wines that are easy and enjoyable to drink at price points that won't break the bank.
Marselan, a cross between Cabernet & Grenache is an absolutely fascinating wine. While still relatively unknown to U.S. consmers, Marselan is one of the seven varieties permitted in Bordeaux and Bordeaux Superieur. Typically, the wines showcase a medium-body, fine tannins and an essense of cherries and cassis. It could very well become the red wine of Queretaro!

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
Bright garnet red wine with violet flashes. Wine with high color depth and good viscosity.
Wine of high aromatic intensity, with characteristics of fruity and floral aromas with sweet spicy character. Aromas that evoke memories of raisins, vanilla, caramel, cocoa, anise, roses, coffee, raisins and ripe black fruits. Medium to full tannins with a lengthy finish.
