The 2005 Altos de Revilla was sourced from two single Tempranillo vineyards called Pagos de Revilla. It was aged for 18 months in new French oak before being bottled unfiltered. Inky purple, the wine is very fragrant with floral notes, mineral, spice box, wood smoke, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. On the palate the wine is beautifully balanced giving off a sense of elegance despite its size. Opulent and full-flavored, notes of chocolate, mocha, and licorice emerge nearly concealing enough silky tannin to support an additional 3-4 years of cellaring. Drink this superb wine from 2010 to 2035.
