ABADIA RETUERTA 'Cuvee El Campanario' - Castilla y Leon 1996 Bottle - NO DISCOUNT

Description

The 100% Tempranillo 1996 Cuvee Campanario is a layered and elegant wine with a richness that could easily rival a top-tier Bordeaux in a blind tasting. It was aged for 16 months in 100% new French Limousin oak barrels and bottled without filtration. The wine has a deep saturated purple hue and exhibits a complex, impressive profile. Its bouquet features black fruit aromas including blackberries black raspberries and overripe cherries.

The full-bodied and tightly structured palate reveals intriguing mineral notes. The 28-day maceration imparts a high tannin content which is sweet and well integrated within the wines framework. It’s more reserved both aromatically and on the palate, offering a bold and powerful experience. Because of its structure and potential, it is recommended to wait another two to three years before opening.
