<p>Deep-seated cinnamon and nutmeg spice. Very rounded and full this year, thick with mouthcoating ripe tannins. It has the lift you&#39;d want from Hominis Fides with exceptionally smooth tannins. The alcohol is a little raised on the finish but this has exceptional length and is velour textured. Very big framed in this vintage. Good lift and pep here, it&#39;s needed for the long term. Made with Grenache planted in 1902 on Miocene calcareous sand. Single vineyard. No destemming. 12 months maturation in French oak barriques: 20% new, 50% 1-year-old, 30% 2-year-old. Unfiltered. Organic.</p>
