Wine Description
Tempranillo 80%, Cabernet Sauvignon 10%, Merlot & Malbec 10%. An equally dark, dense colour here, but a more earthy hue. Hints at a different style here - an impressive, powerful nose full of fruit, still with a perfumed elegance, but also a meaty, rare beef aroma.

International Wine CellarMedium ruby. Sappy raspberry, game and spices on the nose. A wine of great verve and sweetness; lush and chewy but also urgent and sharply delineated. Bracing acids give this dense wine buns of steel. Wonderful expanding finish features strong but thoroughly ripe tannins. An outstanding vintage for this legendary wine.
