Note for Salmos 2005

Gorgeous dark purple color to this wine, the definition of "inky". Rich but tight nose, right after opening the bottle. It slowly opens and develops into almond, pepper, and a breadiness. With time it allows fresh raspberry, brambles, and cherry to come forward. Pure and silky in the mouth with good acidity and fine tannins.Cherry and anise are the first flavors out of the glass followed in time by pepper, cinnamon, clove and other dark fruits. Really need to drink this over the course of a night to fully understand it. August 15, 2007 | Link to this note
