The purple-colored 2005 Lavia+ is 100% Monastrell aged in barrel. Slightly roasted blueberry compote aromas along with mineral and underbrush make for a sexy mix. Supple and round on the palate, spice notes and licorice make an appearance leading to a lengthy, fruit-filled finish. It will offer prime drinking from 2011 to 2020.

The 2005 Lavia+ is 100% Monastrell sourced from 70- to 80-year-old ungrafted vines. It spent 13 months in 300-liter barrels followed by 3 months in foudre prior to bottling without fining or filtration. Purple-colored, it exhibits a cedar, earthy, leather, and blueberry-scented bouquet with a layering of spicy fruit, soft tannin, good balance and enough structure to improve for another 2-3 years in the bottle. Drink this lengthy effort through 2025.Importer: Aurelio Cabestrero, Grapes of Spain, Lorton, VA; tel. (571) 642-0343
