Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Was lucky enough to get a bottle from the 739 cases produced. A blend of 60% Cariñena, 30% Garnacha, 10% Syrah and aged for 14 months in French, American and Hungarian oak. Deep red, dark edges, with aromas of black fruits and complex earthy spices. On the palate black cherry and blackberry flavors with herbs, cacao and pepper spice. Full-bodied, well balanced wine with smooth tannins. Lingering finish ending with cinnamon and mineral notes. Very Nice! Will age well for another decade!
