點擊次數：39393

The 2004 Reserva was sourced entirely from estate fruit. It is composed of 90% Tempranillo and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon which spent 18 months in French oak and was bottled unfiltered. Purple-colored, it has an uplifting perfume of pain grille, scorched earth, violets, cinnamon, and blackberry liqueur. This leads to a medium-bodied, dense, super-concentrated, spicy wine with layers of flavor. It nicely conceals enough tannin to permit 4-6 years of further evolution in the bottle and should provide pleasure through 2025.

Capellanes waded through some weak efforts in 2002 and 2003, but this vintage marks undisputed excellence for a reserva. The wine has alluring smoky, sultry notes to match its bold fruit, while the flavors of blackberry, dark spice and chocolate announce perfect raw material and a deft winemaking hand, i.e. controlled oak. Delicious now through 2014. ——M.S.(11/15/2008)—— 93
