El Nido 2009 Clio Red (Jumilla)

Country: Spain / Clio
Variety: Red Blend Levante
Winery: El Nido / Jumilla

Opaque to the eye, this has a bouquet that’s tightly sealed with aromas of oak, tobacco and cola, and a baked, minty note. Saturated but not syrupy, this has roasted, savory flavors of clove, nutmeg, hickory and baked blackberry. It remains roasted, deep and delicious on the finish. This is entirely modern, full bodied and excellent as a whole.
