Aged 18 months in old French oak barriques, the 2009 Full Circle Mataro reveals a medium to deep garnet color and an earthy, meaty, gamey nose over a core of dried plums, mulberries, tobacco, dried herbs and damp loam, Medium to full bodied and very crisp in the mouth with a medium level of chewy tannins, it offers a good concentration of earthy flavors that linger long into the finish.
