Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Tried twice! Produced by Vega Sicilia and Bodegas Benjamin De Rothschild, aged in mostly French oak (new and 1 year old) for about 12 months, deep Ruby with aromas of fresh fruits and spice. On the palate flavors of fresh youthful berry fruit, cherry, licorice, vanilla and well integrated cedar. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit character, cacao and cedar character, very nice!

Beautiful color. High American oak notes. Mouthfeel has good texture but missing lift. Tannins are a touch rough but it’s still young. Ok wine.
