The eponymous 2015 Finca Sandoval wants to show the limestone character of the estate soils. In 2015, it's 78% Syrah, 16% Monastrell and 6% Bobal that fermented with indigenous yeasts after a cold soak. The élevage was in 300-liter oak barrels for 14 months. It's a ripe and powerful Mediterranean red blend with 15% alcohol and moderate acidity. It has a floral nose with notes of ripe raspberries and a spicy twist. The palate is medium to full-bodied with some grainy tannins. It's a powerful red, but it seems fresher and the oak is better integrated than in past years. It feels like there is a shift in style here. It has supple flavors and a long, tasty finish. 7,500 bottles were filled in October 2016. There is no 2017 or 2018 because of the challenging conditions of those vintages.
