點擊次數：2044

The opaque purple-colored 2005 Noble is 100% Tempranillo sourced from vines over 70 years of age. It was aged for 15 months in American oak followed by six months in French oak. The nose gives up an aromatic array of pain grille, pencil lead, spice box, incense, and blackberry. Full-bodied on the palate, it has outstanding depth, layers of succulent black fruit, and enough structure to evolve for 4-6 years. This lengthy effort will be at its best from 2014 to 2030.

Figuero’s top wine is more than fine. The nose begins with meaty, leathery notes and backs them up with spice and ripe fruit. The palate is not flabby or fat; instead it’s racy and features good acidity that pushes raspberry, tea, tobacco and nutmeg flavors. A more agile wine than many from this famed region. Should age well for five to ten years.——M.S.(4/1/2009)—— 91
