Tasting Notes

Clean, intense nose. Memories of ripe fruit, jam (Marmalade) against a background of fine wood, with a distinctly balsamic (eucalyptus, pine).
In mouth is powerful, dense with a formal step by mouth, with good tannins. Palate is ample, complex, long and persistent.
We advise you to taste to 18’c.

The 2004 Reserva de la Familia raises the bar a notch. It has greater richness, depth, and concentration as well as greater aging potential. It should be at its best from 2013 to 2024.
