A blend of tempranillo, petit verdot and cabernet sauvignon. This was the only wine on show that was bottled under cork. Some good, bright fruits and a touch of bitter chocolate on the nose. A lovely, velvety palate with nice savoury notes and fairly forward tannins. For me this is somewhat reminiscent of Abadia Retuerta in the way it lends a Bordeaux-like air to the predominantly tempranillo blend.
