Otazu 2011 Premium Cuvée Señorío de Otazu Red (Navarra)

Country: Spain / Premium Cuvée Señorío de Otazu
Variety: Red Blend Northern Spain
Winery: Otazu / Navarra

This Navarran blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Tempranillo opens with mulchy aromas of compost, tomato and herbs as well as currant and plum. The palate is thick and syrupy in feel, with a mix of baked, stewy berry flavors offset by green notes. Herbal berry and chocolaty flavors control a rooty, sweet-tasting finish.
