"(made from tempranillo vines that are all over 60 years old; malo in new French oak followed by further aging in more new oak barrels): Inky ruby. Heady aromas of black and blue fruits, oak spices and candied flowers. Stains the palate with intense cherry compote and blueberry flavors, picking up suave floral pastille and spice nuances with air. Shows excellent clarity and power on the finish, which features deftly integrated tannins and a seductive spicecake quality. - Josh Raynolds"
