HOW TO SERVE IT

REMEMBER...
- Garnacha is elegance in red wine, and in our TIKI-TAKA it is perfectly identified.
- Wines are always stored horizontally in a cool place where temperatures don’t go above 18ºC.
- The colour, its intensity and hue, can define the features and characteristics of the wine.
