Auf Stephen Tanzer's »

Mácula Tinto 2006‹ von
Tandem aus der
D.O. Navarra mit satten 91/100 Punkten. Die
Cuvée aus
Cabernet Sauvignon und
Merlot beschreibt er nachfolgend im Original:
„Deep ruby. Fresh dark berry and floral pastille aromas are complicated by notes of licorice pastille and musky herbs. Silky and expansive on the palate, offering intense black raspberry, cola and spicecake
flavors that deepen on the back half. Finishes gently sweet and very long, with smooth tannins and lingering floral and berry compote notes. After fermentation and 26 months of aging in 300-liter French oak barrels this wine spent another 2 years in concrete tanks before bottling.”
