Now Viewing: Los Astrales Astrales
"Los Astrales¹s 2001 Astrales, made from 20-70 year old Tinto Fino (Tempranillo), was aged in primarily new French oak, and bottled without filtration. Young and unevolved, with enormous upside potential, its dense purple color is followed by aromas of scorched earth as well as sweet, ripe creme de cassis, plum, and fig-like fruit. Full-bodied with a layered mouthfeel, and a big, blockbuster finish displaying serious tannin, it requires 2-3 years of cellaring, and should be consumed over the following 12-15. Impressive!"
