2008 Bodegas Pintia, Gift Box

Four to six days of cold maceration is used to retain freshness, before 12-15 months of maturation in oak from France (giving cool cedar aromas and structure) and America (giving vanilla and coconut flavours). With a rich nose of sweet blackcurrant and cherry fruit, lined with perfumed menthol and spice, the wine has a dense, powerful palate, with the same concentrated fruit but a superb savoury element and hints of tar, all swept along into an excellently fresh, fruit-filled finish.
