The 2006 Rompesedas Finca Las Parvas is sourced from a 5.5 acre ungrafted parcel of over 100 year old vines and was aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak. Dense purple in color, it sports a sexy perfume of Asian spices, incense, lavender, espresso, mineral, and assorted black fruits. Dense and opulent on the palate, it somehow manages to retain a sense of elegance despite its size. Give it 6-8 years to become a bit more civilized and drink it through 2036.
The Coral Duero estate consists of 50 acres of old vine Tinta de Toro spread among 5 parcels planted on light, sandy soils. All of the wines are aged in 100% new oak of various coopers with light to medium toast.
