This powerful red delivers plum, tobacco, cola and light earthy flavors over muscular tannins. Ripe, even roasted, staying fresh through the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2008 through 2016. 300 cases made.??–TM??Region: Spain / Penedès Select to Add

Plenty of new oak is announced via aromas of coconut, mint, vanilla and burnt toast. but offsetting that is lively berry and cola flavors. As it opens and settles in, you get a wall of fierce tannins that aren’t likely to fade any time soon. So unless you have years to cellar this wine, it will likely hold onto its hard, tannic personality. Hold another three years, if possible.——M.S.(2/1/2008)—— 89
