A wonderful red with complex aromas and flavors of blackberry, mineral, stone and earth. Full body, pure fruit and great beauty. Incredible layers and subtlety. Drink now. A blend of cabernet franc, petit verdot, cabernet sauvignon and merlot, aged 13 to 24 months in large 100-year-old Gamba casks. Wow.
The 2010 Gran Enemigo Agrelo Single Vineyard is from clay soils in a cool vintage. The palate is electric, with citric (pomegranate and blood orange) flavors, completely vertical. I like this much better than the 2009 vintage, but I still prefer the wines from Gualtallary. It is interesting to note that in years with higher acidity he uses less SO2. This is truly vertical. Only 3,500 bottles were produced. Very good value. Drink 2015-2022.
