Blend of Tempranillo, Graciano, and Mazuelo. The mature nose has lovely savoury, leathery, tar, earthy, dried berry, fig, and blackberry aromas, all of which come through on the savoury, mature, medium-full bodied palate. The well-knit tannins have matured well and integrated very nicely. Very good acids. Long, savoury finish. Tasted Nov/2019.
