Cortes de Cima

Cortes de Cima

€29.95

Deep bright crimson. If I had tasted this blind, I would have thought the Syrah percentage was higher because there is such a strong savoury and smoky character but perhaps this comes from the amphorae. Deliciously juicy but still with that finely dry texture you tend to get with clay. Plenty of spice and terrific fruit purity and freshness. Very persistent. Utterly drinkable now but no rush to drink this vibrant wine. 17/20 Points Jancis Robinson
