Note di degustazione
This selection of old-vine, biodynamically farmed fruit produced a wine of great concentration. Aged for 20 months in 50% new French barrique, it offers sweet intensity, with herbal tones and cocoa complexity. Even almost two decades on, the wine feels structured with chewy tannins, lifted by minty notes. The finish is long and leathery, peppered with spice.

The 2005 Matallana was sourced from a biodynamically farmed vineyard with crushing done by foot. It was aged for 20 months in 50% new French oak. Purple in color, it has a brooding nose of pain grille, graphite, espresso, incense and a potpourri of black fruits, Youthful on the palate, it has plenty of ripe tannin that will require 5-7 years of cellaring. However, the wine has all the right stuff, and it is only a matter of time before my score will appear conservative. The talented Telmo Rodriguez makes a wide range of high quality wines from both ends of the price spectrum.
