The 2007 El Puntido is in bottle but not yet released. Deep purple in color, it is a denser, more structured wine than the 2008. It gives up an aromatic array of mineral, Asian spices, smoke, balsamic, and blackberry. Succulent and already becoming complex, this lengthy offering should evolve for another 3-4 years and have a 20-25 year lifespan.

Vinedos de Paganos, one of the outstanding Rioja estates, is owned by the Eguren family. The El Puntido cuvee comes from the single Tempranillo vineyard of the same name planted in 1975. It is typically aged in new French oak for 18 months before bottling without filtration.
