Note for Salmos 2005

Dark blackish purple that looks almost like squid ink. With a little time, the bouquet relaxes, becoming pungent and rich with aromas of black pepper, black raspberry, exotic dark spices and violets. Silky mouthfeel with medium acidity and lush fine tannins. We only had a quick taste of the wine, so I fear the palate didn't totally show its full capacity. I definitely picked up more of the black pepper and dark berries, but I'm confident it would evolve if given more time. August 15, 2007 | Link to this note
