Bodegas Laosa
Trasto Prieto Picudo
Tierra de León, Castilla y León, Spain
Bright violet color. Red berries, cherry pit and a hint of licorice on the expansive, spice-accented nose. Silky and seamless in texture, offering lively bitter cherry and raspberry flavors and a smoky mineral nuance that emerges with air. A floral pastille note builds on the subtly tannic finish, which hangs on with lingering spice and floral notes. (20% whole clusters; aged in neutral French oak barrels.)

High toned and jangly when opened. Five days’ aeration reveals a savory, spicy and focused big red that doesn’t rely on a payload of alcohol to make an impression. Acidic and inky rather than tannic. Energetic and expressive.
