Roasted and baked on first blush, but then the wine’s complexity and use of unusual Mallorcan grape varieties take over. Along the way there’s flavors and aromas of prune, earth, leather, spice and Mediterranean terroir. It’s also bringing tobacco and leaf notes to the table. A fun, different wine that goes nicely with tapas. Drink now through 2011–12. ——M.S.(12/15/2010)—— 90

The 2006 AN was sourced from the Son Negre Vineyard in central Mallorca and is composed primarily of Callet with a small amount of Mantonegre-Fogoneu aged for 17-19 months in new French barriques. Dark ruby-colored, it delivers an enticing perfume of wood smoke, Asian spices, espresso, rosemary, cinnamon, and black raspberry. Very concentrated and already revealing complexity, on the palate it is succulent, spicy, and elegant. Give it 2-3 years of additional cellaring and drink it from 2012 to 2018.
