El Nido 2003 Red (Jumilla)

Country: Spain /
Variety: Cabernet Blend Levante
Winery: El Nido / Jumilla

Cabernet Sauvignon and Monastrell made in a ripe, high-alcohol style results in monster aromas of shoe polish and black licorice. The palate is a wave of chocolate and candied black fruits that crashes into a heavy, ultraripe finish of prune and pepper. A lunker wine with a sweet smile and a big handshake.
