$82.99

Description

“- (aged for two years in new French oak barriques) Deep red. Smoke- and spice-accented cherry and vanilla aromas are complemented by hints of dried flowers, camphor and pipe tobacco. Sweet and seamless on the palate, offering juicy red fruit, spicecake and mint flavors that deepen with air. Shows very good energy and appealing floral character on an impressively long, penetrating finish that’s given shape by discreet tannins” Vinious Media, 93 pts

“This is Sierra Cantabria’s project in Paganos, a town near Laguardia, from a vineyard planted in 1975. It produced a meaty 2006, with the umami savor of roasted pigeon and wild mushrooms. Scents of roses and high-toned spice relieve that full-on tannic richness, integrating into the wine’s supple texture” – Wine & Spirits, 92 pts
