87% Tempranillo, 13% Cabernet Sauvignon. The big question here is, will it be like the 1970 in intrinsic quality, even though times, and methods, have changed? This is a vintage, and a wine, that was born great - everything happened at the ideal moment. Cigary and classy, reminding me at this young age of a top Pessac-Léognan. Velvety texture with cigar box flavours. Splendid wine, with fruit, tannin and acidity in perfect proportion. Plums, berries, in fact, all the black and red fruits. Miss this at your peril, but have a bit of patience - a difficult task when it tastes so marvellous and sweet in 2014! Serena Sutcliffe, MW
