Delicious with a dry aged rib eye — 23 days ago
Rich, but not flabby. Blackberry-type fruit with a healthy helping of spice, herbs, and chocolate with some smoky notes. Nicely integrated oak with chewy tannins (the wine is unfiltered) — a month ago

Sipping Fine Wine
Vega Sicilia started purchasing Toro vineyards in 1997 but didn’t release Pintia until ‘01. 100% Tinta de Toro, thick-skinned clone of Tempranillo, beautiful color, complex aromas of fruit & floral spice. Aged, 18 months, French & American oak, 15% stainless due to very dry year. On the palate pronounced fresh dark berry fruit flavors, smoky oak notes, well balanced with acidity. Complex big tannins, full body, long finish ending with elegant fruit & touch of earthy tones. Nice! Needs time! — 22 days ago
