Region: Toro
Vintage: 2009
Closure: Cork
Alcohol: 14.0%?
Colour: Dark purple
Bouquet: Concentrated sour cherry, clove and freshly pealed bark
Flavour: Big, bold, spectacular. Full rich, plum, mulberry fruit with excellent acidity and extended, grainy tannins. Secondary flavours of other spices like cinnamon and bay leaf. So much complexity and flavour without being overpowering.
Points: 92 (4+7+13+9+9+50)
Notes: Yes, a huge score. This wine really was spectacular and it is relatively young. Would be interesting to retaste (and retaste). V. picked it up on a recent trip to Spain for Eur36.
