NEW in Vintages. This very tasty, ripe, expressive blend of 97% Tempranillo, 2% Graciano and 1% Mazuelo spent 18 months in special barrels made of French and American oak. It has a very deep intense purple-red colour. The nose shows lots of attractive, slightly spicy, ripe, black cherry and cassis fruit with some warm buttered toasty notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, well structured, intense, ripe, very bright, Danson plum, cassis, black cherry flavours with a lingering, fleshy, complex, lingering, cedary finish.
