El Puntido is an old word meaning ‘staircase landing’, similar to the shape that these lands form between the Sierra de Cantabria and the Ebro River depression. Deep Ruby with aromas of fruit, floral, oak & pepper spice. On palate ripe plum and blackberry flavors, complex with layers of fruit & spice, espresso, cacao & licorice. Tannins are elegant, well balanced, long finish ending with fruit, spice and oak. Very nice !

Tasted 9/28/17 at Total Wine Tasting. Tasting pour.
Nose of smoke, wood, and some black cherry. Red and black cassis on the palate mingle with oak and some graphite. Moderate tannins, long finish.
3/22/8/5/4 + 50 = 92 pts.

Decanted for 4 hours. Soft entry followed by an explosive mid. Ripe red fruits in a cedar bowl. This has precise acid and a generous finish. It did well with sausage and bacon pizza.
