Note di degustazione
The flagship 2007 Contador receives the same elevage as the Cueva cuvee, the difference is based entirely on selection. Deep purple in color, it surrenders an already multifaceted perfume of sandalwood, truffle, Asian spices, incense, black cherry, and blackberry. On the palate it exhibits a satin texture, intense flavors, loads of spice, impeccable balance, and an elegant personality in combination with its power. It demands 6-8 years of cellaring at the minimum and its drinking window will extend from 2016 to 2042. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates from Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

Dense, bright, pretty modern idiom with great refinement and polish. Very big and still quite young and compact but very authentic and pure. This from the old cellarmaster at Artadi. Perhaps just a tiny bit over the top but certainly an eloquent expression of the new wave. (JR)
