El Escocés Volante Manga del Brujo 2021 is an exceptional red wine from the Calatayud region of Aragón, Spain. Produced by the Scottish winemaker Norrel Robertson, known as ‘The Flying Scotsman’, this wine stands out for its distinctive character and its artisanal production, which combines tradition and modernity. To the eye, it has an intense ruby red colour with violet highlights, indicating its youth and freshness. On the nose, it displays a complex and seductive aromatic profile, dominated by notes of ripe red and black fruits, such as cherries, raspberries and blackberries, accompanied by floral hints of violets and subtle spicy nuances of pepper and liquorice. Delicate mineral notes, characteristic of the region's terroir, are also perceptible. On the palate, Manga del Brujo 2021 is a balanced and well-structured wine. Its tannins are soft and well integrated, providing a silky and pleasant texture. The lively and fresh acidity enhances the fruity and spicy flavours, while the palate is round and persistent, with a long and harmonious finish that leaves an elegant reminder of fruit and spices. This wine is perfect to accompany a variety of dishes, from grilled meats and stews to cured meats and cheeses.
