VinoUS Media Review
Rated 92
Bright garnet. Dried cherry, candied rose, smoked meat, tobacco and a hint of fruitcake on the nose. Smooth and pliant in the mouth, offering appealingly sweet cherry pie, red currant and vanilla flavors that show no rough edges. Fully mature but still delivers good energy. The very long, smoky finish echoes the tobacco and vanilla notes. Drinking Window: 2021-2026. (Josh Raynolds, January 2021)
Wine Tasting Notes
Made from a selection of the very best Tempranillo grapes from over 40 year old vines used for the production of Reserva and Gran Reserva wines. Aged 15 months in American oak casks and released early before Reserva status, but with all the qualities of Urbina's Reserva wines. Intense, dark ruby red, very concentrated nose of berries, damsons, and figs, full-bodied, rich fruit cake and savoury vanilla flavors on the palate, well-structured, mellow, firm tannins with the fine elegance of the Urbina marque.
