The 2006 Tempranillo (70%)-Graciano (30%) is Cascabel’s take on Rioja. It was aged for 18 months in 60% new French oak puncheons and bottled without fining or filtration. Dark ruby in color, it offers up a complex bouquet of pain grille, spice box, leather, black cherry, and blackberry. This supple-textured wine delivers mouth coating, spicy dark fruits, excellent concentration, and a lengthy, pure finish. It will provide optimum pleasure from 2010 to 2018. Cascabel is a five hectare estate, four of which are planted to nine grape varieties. It is the project of Duncan Ferguson and Susana Fernandez, the latter a native of Madrid. The concept is to put a Spanish face on McLaren Vale wines.Importer: Southern Starz, Huntington Beach, CA; tel. (714) 892-3030
