Note di degustazione
100% Tempranillo. Very ripe but not overripe fruit. Chocolate and vanilla on the nose but also bags of smoky cassis. Perfumed but also a little spirity at first. Oaky spice on the palate but with considerable finesse underneath these currently dominant notes. Dry, fresh length. (JH)

Inky ruby. Dense red and dark berry liqueur aromas are energized by zesty mineral and fresh floral qualities. Precise and suave, offering sweet red berry flavors and sexy oak spice character that's in no way ostentatious. I find the restraint of this wine to be utterly compelling, as is the balance of power and finesse on the long, spicy finish. An exotic floral pastille quality simply doesn't let up.
As for the 2005 Vina El Pison, like the 2005 Pagos Viejos, it is just a bit more muted and not quite as explosive on the nose and palate. It will take more time to fully strut its stuff but, make no mistake, it too is a legend in the making. Kudos to Bodegas Artadi for this tour de force!
