Note di degustazione
Beautifully fresh and vibrant, the 2005 Jonata Winery El Corazon de Jonata is a step up from the ’04, showing awesome aromatics of smoky black cherry and cassis fruits, cigar box, tobacco, blood and roofing tar. Very tightly wound on the palate, the wine possesses full bodied power with superb balance, a rich, full texture, and a serious, tannic finish. This needs time. I’d give bottles another 3-5 years and then drink over the following decade or longer.

(a blend based on 35% syrah and 31% cabernet sauvignon) Opaque violet. Deep, ripe cherry and plum on the nose, with exotic baking spice and gingerbread building with air. Lush dark berry liqueur flavors are deep and sweet but possess good grip, finishing with light, dusty tannins and excellent persistence. Really stains the palate with sweet, precise fruit and minerality and possesses mare energy than the 2004 version, which is a beauty in its own right. Incidentally, both of these wines include 1% of sauvignan blanc.

The 2005 El Corazon de Jonata (41% Syrah, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 11% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, and 2% Sauvignon Blanc) is denser, richer, and more perfumed than its 2004 counterpart. The overall impression is one of a sensual/seductive wine boasting an inky/blue/purple color as well as copious amounts of blue, red, and black fruits interwoven with truffle, charcoal, and graphite scents. This full-bodied, powerful 2005 offers both significant flavor authority and elegance. It will last for 15 or more years.
