Country: Spain / Lui Selection
Variety: Tinta de Toro Northern Spain
Winery: Abelis Carthago / Toro
The Lui & William bodega is behind this outstanding Tempranillo from Toro. The wine shows a brilliant violet tint in front of intense, inky aromas of black cherry and chocolate cake. The palate is superripe and bucks like a bronco; the tannins are dense and form titanic structure, and the finish of coffee and spice hints at a fine cigar. It’s a huge load at 15%, so be prepared.
