Tasting Notes
Visual Stage: The red color looks like ruby shades, with a color depth well pronounced, really shows, in spite of years passed, how great and serious this harvest was.
Nose Stage: Long maturation in barrel to tame the potential content of this Rompesedas 2006. Give it time to develop in the wine glass, to discover an aromatic multitude since black fruit up to balsamics, spices and liquorice, which fills it with expressiveness, subtlety and finesse.
Taste Stage: Pleasant tactile sensory perceptions in the mouth real go through. While the olfactory components are completely developed, shows a complete set of harmony, length and velvety yet meaty texture combined structure leaving an extraordinarily pleasant aftertaste.
