Yecla, Valencia and Murcia, SpainAnother interesting meaty, floral, chocolate, peppery nose with earthy, tobacco, plum and smoke undertones. Ripe, round, fresh, slightly tannic palate. Tobacco, peppery, smoky, meaty, chocolate, black cherry, liquorice root. A touch rustic on the finish but has good concentration and represents solid value.Tasted: 23 October 2010Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $15.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
