Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard

Enjoyed it ‘mucho’!

According to the experts you shouldn’t touch this before 2020… but patience is overrated. So I opened it, decanted it and enjoyed it ‘mucho’! Intense flavors of dark berries, plum, red fruit and a hint of sugared nuts caressed my palate. Concentrated but balanced up until the looooong finish died.

A full, wonderful wine with a long finish and a gorgeous dark ruby color Drinking is already now, but every year it improves The rating which received from the RP is adequate

Excellent

La note Parker de 100 avait retenu mon attention. Nous n'avons pas été déçus bien que le guide ait été un peu généreux. C'est un très grand vin sans défaut très rond en bouche,produit par Bodegas Aleana. Peut se boire avec une volaille ou des viandes blanches.

Typical case of baby murder... (please forgive me this phrase)

...but with a purchase of 6 bottles this loss is bearable. It’s a great wine but currently difficult to get through the wall of concentration and fruit power. It looks as if this is a marathon runner. Very dense, great structure, but not too overpowered as some new world wines of the southern hemisphere; probably thanks to the altitude on which these vines grow and without the greenness which some wines of this area show. Difficult to give a rating but undoubtedly a great wine with an enormous potential for the future. Blindly tasted I hadn't logged in Bordeaux directly but what else? Running expulsion procedure probably Gironde right bank or maybe a Tuscan Cab Franc is what remains? However - this wine has a unique fingerprint and time will show if it's going to be an elegant lady's or an aristocratic gentlemen's one... Buy!!!

Impactante con su acidez punzante y su tacto carnoso. Los taninos a medio pulir pero bien integrados proporcionando estructura y equilibrio al conjunto, erigiéndose en protagonistas y proporcionando un paso por boca seco, elegante y de mucho carácter. El grado alcohólico notable ayudando a potenciar sus aromas retronasales a mermelada de frambuesa. Pero en el post-gusto es donde se guarda lo mejor, sabroso y corpulento, con sabores frutosos y amaderados perfectamente ensamblados. Para colmo nos da una persistencia de 4 min. y 10 seg. Brutal este cabernet franc, elegancia a la enésima potencia,
