Appearance: The 2020 vintage wine is medium deep ruby in color with a garnet hue. Despite four years of aging, the bouquet appears youthful.
Aroma: In the complex aroma, Mediterranean spices intertwine with dark red and black fruit, cherry, sour cherry, blackberry. Subtle notes of smoke and toast can be detected, indicating aging in wood.
Taste: The wine is dry, fuller-bodied, despite the 13% alcohol level. Zinfandel adds fullness, while Rebo keeps it upright. The tannins are well-shaped, the wine feels upright, firm, with a velvety texture and at the same time floating.
Conclusion: In the mid-phase, the wine shows its character, persistence, full flavor with plenty of concentration and finesse. It is an enigmatic, distinctive wine that struggles to find its place, but invites us to reflect on a different paradigm of the Mediterranean.
