The impeccable 1999 Pagos Viejos (100% Tempranillo from 60+ year old vines, and aged in French oak) exhibits a dense ruby/purple color along with a sweet, Volnay-like bouquet of raspberries, cherries, minerals, and a hint of spicy wood. Medium-bodied, long, concentrated, and well-balanced, it will drink well for 5-7 years.
