Maturana Tinta comes from a clone rescued from old Maturana Tinta Vines, aged for 11 months in new French oak. Deep Ruby with aromas of black fruits and smoky notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry, tobacco and bits of cacao and black pepper. Lively acidity, medium finish ending with fruit, spice and smoky cigar box character. Nice value, should be able to age a bit.

2009 rare white mutation of Tempranillo. Wonderful crisp and rich, a perfect balance between fruit and mineral. Lemon and apple and herbs.

Saw it on Winebid, I’ll try anything once.
Not half bad once it airs out
