The 2013 Blecua was quite similar to the 2014 I tasted next to it, even if the blend was slightly different—49% Merlot, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Syrah, 2% Garnacha and 2% Tempranillo—but 20 months in new barriques has erased all varietal nuances and just makes the wine feel over-oaked. They want this to be the icon of Somontano, hence the price. But I think they are 15 years too late. All this complemented by 14.5% alcohol and four grams of residual sugar. It was less oaky than the 2014, still with abundant herbal notes and spices. The palate has abundant grainy tannins and oak-related flavors but is fresher and more fluid than the 2014. 5,944 bottles produced. It was bottled in December 2015.
