Fresh ripe red fruits, floral oils, pipe tobacco and incense take on sexy vanilla and woodsmoke nuances as the wine opens up. Densely packed yet shockingly lithe on the palate, offering intense cherry liqueur, red currant and spicecake
It feels very aromatic and open, with the classical Vega Sicilia perfume of yesteryear, earthy, leafy and spicy...powerful, but at the same time it's elegant and has a polished mouthfeel and fine-grained tannins.
This polished red offers flavors of tobacco, cedar and leather, with a core of cherry and tea. Firm tannins support the thick, smooth texture, while lively acidity keeps this balanced. Harmonious and long.
