The 2012 Sotorrondero, a blend of Garnacha and Syrah outside the boundaries of Gredos aged in barrels for ten months is young, open and aromatic, like its big brother, the Jimenez-Landi Bajondillo. In this wine the two grapes are well assembled showing a clean and complex nose of raspberry and strawberry aromas, hints of spices, smoke and a meatiness from the Syrah. The palate is medium-bodied with great balance, polished tannins and fine acidity sharpening the focus of the flavors through the supple and tasty finish with great length. This is a good showing for Sotorrondero. 12,000 bottles produced.
