Viña Requingua
Reserve Puerto Viejo Single Vineyard Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon
Not much on the nose. Plenty of smoke though. Like a cigar ashtray from a across the room. Or maybe just an open cigar box. Anyway, there is sometime resembling tobacco burned and unburned in there. Flavor is plums of a very-ripe-almost-desiccated stage. Hint of more tobacco leaf. Or is it tomato? Smooth, lighter bodied feel. Tannins are minimal. A perfectly passable Tuesday/Thursday red. Nada más y nada menos. I was hoping for a bit more. Que lastima.
