Pruno - MAGNUM, Finca Villacreces
Description
This is a blend of 90% Tempranillo and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 12 months in French oak, and is stunning, simply over-delivering in so many different ways. This wine, which offers up copious quantities, of blueberry, black raspberry and black currant fruit, licorice, graphite and meaty notes, offers fabulous aromatics, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, beautiful, pure texture and a long, heady finish with subtle oak. What’s amazing is the French oak is all two-year-old, super-expensive Darnajou barrels. (93 pts, Robert Parker)
