1999 D.O. La Mancha Crianza Señorio de Zocodover, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain

Matt garnet with rust brown tinges. Dried dark berries on the nose, ripe red fruit as well as nutty and balsamic notes. Very soft and harmonious dark berry fruit on the palate, slightly sweetish, accompanied by some brittle oak, dusty and slightly astringent tannins, acceptable finish.

Best to drink: Bis 2005. What our ratings mean
