Note di degustazione
The 2006 Malleolus de Sanchomartin gives up a nose of chocolate/mocha, black cherry, and black raspberry. A bit lighter in the mouth than the preceding wines, it still is loaded with succulent fruit. Impeccably balanced and lengthy, it will benefit from another 6-8 years of cellaring and drink well through 2031. Malleolus de Sanchomartin is sourced from a vineyard planted in 1964 with cuttings grafted from the Valderramiro vineyard. Alcoholic fermentation is with indigenous yeasts with ML in barrel. The wine is then aged for 22 months in French oak. Importer: Please contact the winery to find your nearest importer. www.emiliomoro.com

(from a south-facing 0.7-hectare plot situated 2,500 feet above sea level) Opaque purple. Heady aromas of blackberry, cola, tobacco, potpourri, graphite and olive; reminds me of a great Hermitage. Deep, sweet dark berry and cola flavors are strongly accented by smoky mineral and floral notes, with a powerful snap of cracked pepper on the back. The minerality becomes more insistent with air and defines the long, sweet, sharply delineated finish. For all this wine's power there's a shockingly graceful quality that suggests it will reward cellaring.
The opaque purple-colored 2006 Malleolus de Sancho Martin is sourced from the 1.72 acre Pago de Sancho Martin vineyard planted in 1964. Malolactic fermentation occurred in new barrels with batonnage after which it spent 22 months in new French oak. It provides a brooding aromatic array of roasted herbs, scorched earth, toasty new oak, incense, and blackberry. Immense, muscular, and dense, this powerful effort demands 10-12 years of cellaring after which it will provide optimum drinking from 2020 to 2035. Those in need of immediate gratification should look elsewhere. All of the Bodegas Emilio Moro wines are 100% Tinto Fino (Tempranillo).
