2014 | ABREU | Los Posadas

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Las Posadas Proprietary Red opens with tons of wild blueberry, mulberries and cassis notes over garrigue, sage, baking spices and dusty soil plus touches of Black Forest cake and cedar. The rich, full-bodied palate is rugged, muscular, lively and concentrated with firm, grainy tannins, finishing very long and earthy.

Reviews:

• Wine Spectator: The purity of fruit is so inspirational here with blackcurrants, licorice, tar and violets. Full-bodied, layered and extremely long. Juicy and so intense. Quality of tannins is beautiful with a chewy and savory finish. Fantastic. Needs at least four to five years of bottle age. Blend of cabernet sauvignon (53%), cabernet franc (21%), petit verdot (14%), malbec (6%) and merlot (6%).
