The 2005 Crianza was aged for 12 months in a mixture of new and seasoned French and American oak. Purple in color, it has an alluring bouquet of toasty oak, spice box, mineral, blackberry, and black raspberry. This leads to a layered wine packed with black fruits, coffee and chocolate. Nicely balanced and concealing ample silky tannin, this wine has several years of aging potential. Although it can be enjoyed now it will be at its best between 2012 and 2022.
