Cillar de Silos Tinto Fino 2015

NOW $48. Blueberry, tobacco and hung beef - it's gotta be Ribera!  ...With a pronounced earthiness, cool and precise in line, elegant and fine. Not a wine of bigness, it's a lovely, pure wine of very high quality and beautifully composed. Dark cherry fruit specked with tobacco melds into a fine tannin line which itself seems indivisible from fruit and also from earth and is wired on steely minerals and fine natural acidity. This is our favourite lamb wine !!! – it’s just dying to cut some fat. Mulberry- pippy fruit, both blue and red.  It’s perfectly balanced in the mouth, with the generous inky blue fruit profile cut by admirable fruit tannin, finely judged oak, natural spice and acid. Gorgeous, fluid and long. FWC.
