Faustino I Gran Reserva Rioja 2001

Dark garnet color. Nose of wild berries, dry fruits, leather and old wood. Smooth on the palate with its flavors of old wood, leather, tobacco, sweet spices and some jammy fruits notes on a long and persistant finish. It is quite interesting to have the opportunity to drink a wine of that age at that more than reasonable price. Very good (89)

Made of 86% Tempranillo, 9% Graciano and 5% de Mazuelo. Aged 26 months in French and American oak barrels. Alcohol level of 13,5%

The 2004 vintage is currently available in SAQ store for 29,95$ (Code SAQ : 10483026)
