點擊次數(shù)：6341

The 2004 Alfa Crux spent 17 months in new French and American oak. It delivers a complex aromatic array of pain grille, pencil lead, scorched earth, black cherry, and blackberry. Medium- to full-bodied, dense, and structured, this intensely flavored blend combines elegance and power. It also shows the potential of Tempranillo in certain regions of Mendoza. Drink this superb effort from 2012 to 2024. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates From Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

Amazingly ripe and deep wine from 2004, so it’s all that it’s going to be. Thick and figgy aromas bring bacon, mint and cool, cushiony cola notes. The palate is megasaturated with chocolaty oak and dark berry power galore. Remains oaky on the finish; a massive wine to drink now through 2017.——M.S.(8/1/2011)—— 93
