1998 D.O. La Mancha Reserva Allozo, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain

Medium garnet to brown. Ripe berry nose with delicate nutty notes, old oak, some coconut milk and a touch of cinnamon. Mature sweet notes of dried dark berries on the palate, red fruit, still challenging tannins, a little acidity, elegant mineral notes, some animal notes and slightly bitter on a good finish.
