2005 Alto Moncayo Aquilon 750ML
Product Information:
“The
2005 Aquilon has a splendid perfume of slate, violets, and cherry compote.
There is beautiful integration of oak, tannin, and acidity, a smooth texture,
layers of flavor, and exceptional length. There is enough structure to support
6-8 years of cellaring and it will provide pleasure through 2030.” 97 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
"Dark purple. The nose offers surreal, room-filling perfume of ripe raspberry, blackberry, incense, vanilla and dried flowers. Shockingly understated on the palate, with vibrant red berry, smoked meat and baking spice flavors, silky tannins and crisp mineral bite. There's no excess fat or sweetness here. Finishes with palate-staining intensity and superb focus. I'd love to see this lined up with some mega-bucks Napa cult wines costing twice the price of this admittedly luxe-priced bottle. If you play in this sandbox, you'll flip over this wine." Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar Issue 134, September/October 2007
