The 2004 Seleccio Vinyes Velles is 70% Garnacha old-vines, 10% Carinena old vines, and the balance Tempranillo, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine was aged for 10 months in French oak. Dark ruby-colored, it offers slightly baked aromas of menthol, slate, cedar, smoke, black cherry, and blueberry. Forward, smooth-textured, with some concealed tannin. It has 2-3 years of aging potential but can be enjoyed over the next 6-8 years.
