Abadia Retuerta "Seleccion Especial" Sardon del Duero 2000

Purple/red.

Wins style points aromatically - earth/custard, musky black fruit, Bordeaux herbs.

Plush, filled-in palate impression shows a slight superficiality in the finish. Crowd pleaser, but doesn't have the depth it needs. Still, nice stuff.


$20
