Description

Vina Sastre Ribera del Duero 2006
Pesus
Bottle (5)

Wines from the cellar of a SoCal gentleman. Most wines were purchased on release, some carefully selected through auctions, and all stored in the idyllic temperature and humidity at the famous Grotto in Pasadena.

“The flagship 2006 Pesus comes from a small parcel of 82-year-old Tempranillo vines blended with a bit of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. After fermentation in a special stainless steel tank, the wine was transferred into new French oak. It was racked further into new oak three times and aged for a total of 24 months in barrel. Purple/black in color, it emits an aromatic array of sandalwood, pencil lead, Asian spices, incense, truffle, tar, licorice, black cherry, and blackberry. Dense, rich, loaded, and long, it will continue unwinding for a decade and offer a drinking window extending from 2017 to 2036, probably longer.” (98 pts. Jay S Miller, Wine Advocate, April 2010)
