The 2007 Clave de Tabula was barrel-fermented and then spent 12 months in new French barriques followed by 3 months in one 15 hl foudre. Deep purple in color, it displays an alluring nose of sandalwood, incense, Asian spices, lavender, and blackberry. Dense, ripe, and a bit more elegant than the Gran Tubula bottling, this impeccably balanced, lengthy effort will deliver a drinking window extending from 2014 to 2027.
