Maluni – Reserva 2011 – Cariñena

Colour is developed with a quite light towards medium ruby-red core, more brick rusty rim. Sweet nose. Indicating high ripeness. Slightly jammed or macerated red fruit. With sweet plum, vanilla, some hints of pastry. Gentle hint of oak. Quite sweet spiciness. Like gingerbread spices. Palate has a medium weight. It has gotten some maturity. I would already call it rounded style with a very sweet fruity character. A hint of confiture of red berry fruit, plum. Underlined by some oak. Then we have these clove, ginger-like spices. So a few years to it. I would say a perfectly rounded and drinkable style. Finish has some persistence. I would put it in the medium towards long spectrum. Juicy, sweet fruit, attractive spiciness on the finish. This is a style to enjoy today.
