A barrel sample of the 2001 Crianza looks outstanding. This powerful, dense, ruby/purple-colored wine exhibits notes of melted licorice, black currants, blackberries, and tar. Medium to full-bodied and opulent, with a gorgeous texture, it should drink well for 8-10 years. Importer: Andre Tamars, De Maison Selections, Inc., Chapel Hill, NC; tel. (919) 933 4245
