"The 2005 Corelium is 90% Carinena and 10% Garnacha from a single vineyard with vines ranging from 70-100 years. The wine spent 16 months in 300-liter new French oak. A glass-coating purple-hue, the nose exhibits wood smoke, slate, spice box, floral notes, wild blueberry, and black cherry. Dense and rich with a liquid minerality on the palate, this plush, lengthy wine will unfurl with another 4-6 years in the cellar and drink well through 2025." 95 Points, Robert Parkers' Wine Advocate, Issue 175 (FEB 2008) |
