Abadía Retuerta Selección Especial 2011 Tinto

Dark ruby colour. Lots of black fruit on the nose (blackcurrants, blackberries, plums) and kirsch with lively dried herb aromas on the background. This is a powerful, big red in tune with the very ripe 2011 vintage. Lively fruit on the mid-palate, with some black chocolate notes and firm, well-wrapped tannins that will keep it alive for the next four years. 16.5 points
