Castaño Pozuelo Reserva 1998

Yecla, Valencia and Murcia, SpainVery gamey, smoky, saddle leather, peppery, liquorice nose with black berry jam, chocolate and lanolin streaks. Ripe, round, dry palate with somewhat astringent tannins. Big black cherry jam, liquorice, spicy, chocolate, peppery earthy flavours with good acidity. Elegant styling, good fruit but a bit too hard right now. Try with roast lamb or rabbit but will be better in a year or two.Tasted: 25 January 2004Tasted by: Stuart TobePrices:
