Bit sleepy but still classic. Tannins and acid yet to be resolved.

After another day shopping with Mrs E we were not only worn out but broke so to McDonalds we went & I grabbed the new €44 Pardo Enea to pair with the burger πŸ” & enjoy in our hotel room at 11pm - dinner with style 🀣 better than the thick shake 😊

πŸ“ Muga Pardo Enea 2010 (not decanted - wish I’d brought my πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰ vSpin)

🏡 93-94 points w/ great potential aged & decanted πŸ˜‰

🍷 Deep opaque ruby

πŸ‘ƒ Chocolate dark cherry cake w/ cracked rock mineral through red & purple flowers bathed in thick balsamic sauce & a hint of earthy herbs (not the pickle in the Big Mac 🀣)

πŸ‘„ Med+ creamy body of balsamic infused mocha dark cherry gooeyness w/ a mineral dry tone

🎯 Med+ touch dry dark cherry balsamic mocha choc fest

⚠️ Can’t sleep after eating late? Just enjoy the wine with a view 😁 I left some for day 2 & it really opened up lovely πŸ˜‰

Elegant. Refined. Powerful. Good structure. Nose. Oak. Hints of smoke. Dark red fruits - blackberries, ripe plums. Palate. Warm. Upfront notes of vanilla, blackberries. Smooth tannins that slowly build. Long, warm finish. Needs more time.
