Can see the cab/sav fruit is showing a bit of age here with old cigar box, more minerality, cedar and wood spices and sweet red berry, mulberry fruit with scorched earth. In the mouth this is very soft and red fruited with plush tannins, resolved and balanced with notes of soft leather.

Spanish super Tuscan. Well, super navarran. In all seriousness, if you're into this kind of thing, this is still an infant at 10 years old.

Vintage 2006. Full bodied, medium plus tannins, ruby red with garnet hue, 60%merlot,40%cab sauv. This wine is ripe berry rich, with a back bone of anise and eucalyptus, leather and plum. Enjoy 2015/2025. Tex mex, rich fall and winter stews and braised meats. Wonderful.

Great winemaker, super soft tannins, pretty violets here. Modern Navarra wine.
