The 2001 Coma Vella is a blend of 30% Carinena, 20% Garnacha Peluda, 20% Garnacha Pais. 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Syrah. This full-bodied (14.5% alcohol) wine was aged 12 months in French oak. It is opaque purple in color with seductive notes of smoke, meat, and game, as well as black cherry, licorice, and minerals. Opulent, thick, and rich, it will drink well for 6-8 years. If you should see the 2000 Coma Vella, don’t hesitate as it is nearly as good.
