VINTAGE 2006 PRICE 贈70
Selling Points
2006 saw severe heat and drought. The grapes developed more intense colour than previous years, resulting in a more
ripened, more rounded wine that highlights its customary freshness. The Mirto spends 24 months in new French Allier oak
casks with a toasting level specifically determined for the vintage. The wine is bottled without being subjected to any fining or
filtering..
Tasting Notes
Floral bouquet, blackcurrants, plums, chocolate powder, leafy, juicy depth and fresh concentration. The aftertaste lasts
pleasantly with a well-assembled finish, expressive and persistent..

PRODUCER Traslanzas ACIDITY High
COUNTRY Spain TANNIN Strong
REGION Cigales BODY Full
GRAPE 100% Tempranillo FLAVOUR Spice, dark fruit
VINTAGE 2008 PRICE 贈55
Selling Points
Cigales is located on the banks of the river Pisuerga, which lies at the heart of the Castilla y Leon autonomous community of
Spain; its considered to be an up-and-coming wine region. It was awarded DO (Denominacion de Origen) status in 1991.
Despite the relative recentness of the DO, this region has a long and proud history of wine making and its landscape is
adorned with castles.
Tasting Notes
Spices, blackberry, forest fruit and well integrated oak; the tannins are present on the palate but supple and smooth on the
finish
Food Matching
The spicy and black fruit flavours require a rich dish, a juicy meat to contrast the dryness of the tannins (like a rib-eye).
