點擊次數：638

A 100% Tempranillo cuvee, the 1999 El Campanario is elegant with blue, red, and black fruits, a heady bouquet, medium body, a juicy attack, and an attractive, plush mid-palate as well as finish. This outstanding effort is best consumed over the next 6-7 years. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates from Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

The 1997 Cuvee El Campanario (100% Tempranillo) reveals great intensity, ripeness, and richness. Made from some of this huge estate's finest Tempranillo parcels, its dark ruby color is followed by sweet, jammy, black raspberry fruit aromas with notes of licorice and toasty oak. Soft and voluptuously-textured, with meaty notions in the mouth, this wine reveals good ripeness, well-integrated acidity and tannin, and a long, 20-25-second finish. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. Importer: Jorge Ordonez, Fine Estates From Spain, Dedham, MA; tel. (781) 461-5767

Opaque in color, with a splendid, complex bouquet that offers aromas of very dark fruit, coffee and toasty oak. There are rich, deep flavors on the palate, with plum and licorice accents and a full, vibrant mouthfeel. Finishes long and dry, with fine tannins. An estate blend of 100% Tempranillo from an assortment of sites on the property.——M.M.(8/1/2000)—— 95

The 100% Tempranillo 1996 Cuvee Campanario represents a blend of the finest parcels of Tempranillo. The wine was aged in 100% new French Limousin oak for 16 months, then bottled without filtration. It reveals a saturated purple color, and is more backward both aromatically and on the palate, as well as more impressive. The wine's bouquet falls in the black fruit spectrum of aromas - blackberries, black raspberries, and overripe cherries. Full-bodied and tightly-knit, with intriguing mineral notes, this powerful, rich, layered wine could easily pass for a top-class Bordeaux in a blind tasting. The result of 28 days of maceration, the high tannin is sweet and well-integrated in the wine's framework. However, I would not recommend drinking this offering for 2-3 more years. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2020. Congratulations are in order for this impressive new winery that is already turning out wines of exceptional quality.
