Anciano Gran Reserva Tempranillo Aged 10 Years 2009

Introduction

A mature, rounded and complex wine. On the nose, plenty is going on: black cherry and hedgerow berry fruits, balsamic, spicy notes of pepper, caramel and vanilla oak. Soft and supple on the palate, it is well-structured, displaying red fruit flavours, mellow tannins and a long, smooth finish. An elegant and balanced Spanish red in the traditional style.
Great on its own, but as is typical with Spanish wines, it excels with tapas or a meal. Enjoy it paired with game, lamb and beef, rich stews and bean dishes, or hard cheeses. Tempranillo is also a match for lightly spiced Asian cuisine.
