title: Sierra Cantabria 2011 Finca El Bosque  (Rioja)
description: Burnt toast, mineral, raw char, pencil lead, tobacco and blackberry aromas make for a highly complex and powerful nose. Following on that theme, this is packed and intense on the palate, with smoky black fruit and licorice flavors that finish oaky, toasty and blackened. This is the epitome of a modern Rioja thrill ride. It will take its passengers now through 2035; 200 cases made.
variety: Tempranillo
designation: Finca El Bosque
