The 2010 Clos Gebrat Crianza is a blend of Garnacha, Carinena and Cabernet Sauvignon aged for one year in oak, still quite marked by the wood in both nose and palate, with aromas of smoky bacon, charred wood and sweet spices, and some oak tannins in the mid and end of the palate. There is a core of ripe red and black fruit that could do with a little more freshness and acidity. Drink 2014-2017.
