2012 Numanthia 'Termanthia', Toro, Spain (750ml)

Product Info

TASTING NOTES:

Dense and polished, this red is muscular yet balanced, with firm, well-integrated tannins and lively acidity supporting rich flavors of blackberry, cocoa, licorice and mineral. Monolithic now, but has real depth. Best from 2018 through 2028.
 - Wine Spectator, 95 pts

Big and powerful red defined by a stony, seaweed, blackberry and bay-leaf character. Complex and layered. Full-bodied and broad-shouldered with fine tannins and a fresh, spicy and earthy finish. Jammy and old-school Spanish red but impressive nonetheless. Drink now or hold.
 - James Suckling, 93 pts

Fresh nose of ripe dark plums with nuances of minty notes, cigar box and spices. Concentrated and dense on the palate.
