Note di degustazione
The 2004 Aro is a profound effort that may one day achieve a perfect score. Not as dense as the 2005, it is richer, sweeter, and should ultimately become elegant as well as powerful. However, patience will be required. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates from Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

Toasty spicy oak dominates at the moment but there's lovely clear pure berry fruit under the oak. Velvety dense tannins and a fresh spicy finish. Very young and needs more time to become more silky and fragrant. (JH)
70% Tempranillo, 30% Graciano. This had been carafed but was still pretty reductive and in need of more aeration. Very very dense and firm, fresh acidity. Bags of oak – giving aromas of coffee and chocolate. Spicy and so firm at the moment it is more like a wall of tannins. (JH)
(70% tempranillo and 30% graciano) Inky violet. Intensely perfumed nose offers a room-filling bouquet of dark berry liqueur, toasty oak spices, incense and lavender. Deep, sweet and impressively complex, offering flavors of blackberry, candied plum, floral pastille and baking spices. Big but supple tannins add support to this palate-staining monster, which boasts surprising freshness on the finish. Conveys a rare balance of power and elegance.
