Pruno, Finca Villacreces

Pruno

Description

From vineyards adjacent to Vega Sicilia. "Predominantly Tempranillo with dollops of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, aged for 12 months in seasoned French oak. Opaque purple in colour, this offers up a brooding bouquet of earthy minerality, Asian spices, incense and assorted black fruits. Velvety textured, sweetly fruited, layerd, relatively forward and lengthy, this seamless effort admirably reveals the strengths of the great 2009 vintage and is a superb value wine to boot." (91 pts, Jay Miller, Wine Advocate)
