Note di degustazione
95% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), 5% Merlot. Matured for five months in 20,000-litre oak vats, 18 months in new barriques (equal parts French and American oak), three months in used barrels and then 5 months in the vats again before bottling and aging an additional 29 months. 180,000 bottles produced. Deep garnet. Has started to evolve a smoky cape that wraps rich dark fruit. Fine cedar oak aromas and silky tannin. While this is gorgeous now, it has so much verve it could easily go for another decade. Toasty, dark, chocolatey. Slight creaminess and lactic note to the finish. (SCJ)

Starting to show a touch of evolved earthiness and meat on the palate. Rich and silky in texture, and there’s plenty of alcohol but it balances well. Fine, lengthy finish. Lots of oak here, but enough black fruit too. Just entering its first phase of maturity.
