Note di degustazione
The 2007 Único from magnum showed much better than expected, as 2007 was very challenging. The wine showed concentrated and quite tannic, from a powerful year with 14.5% alcohol after a rainy season and an unusually cold summer. It was produced with Tinto Fino and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. 3,107 magnums produced. Artwork by Francisco Javier Rodríguez Quesada.

There’s a savory, herbal touch here, with dried thyme and olives married with wild bramble and black berry fruit. Some tar and tobacco, too. It’s medium-bodied with firm and tight tannins. Fresh and still a little reserved. 95% tempranillo and 5% cabernet sauvignon. Tasted from magnum. Drink or hold.
95% Tinto Fino, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Abnormally cool summer with frost on 24 September; harvest 6–17 October. Aged 14 months in large wooden vats following an 18-month ageing process in new wooden barrels, 8 months in used casks and 24 months in large-capacity wooden vats. 74,975 bottles, 3,107 magnums, 156 double magnums and 11 Impériales. From magnum. Blackish crimson. Sweet and glowing but the tannins are pretty present! Quite hard work at the moment. (JR)
This is in a much happier space than the 2012 and 2011 in terms of development. It expands on the palate, with gorgeous fruit and earthiness and lingering meat juice. Long, long finish. Only just ready! But already showing its magnificence.
