3 | Wine | Red Blend, Jumilla

"It is a gorgeous wine, and clearly in the alluring Sarah’s Blend style, the style that has made Sarah’s Blend the most coveted of the MP wines."

"A glass-coating opaque purple color, it proffers aromas of mineral, underbrush, blueberry, blackberry, and milk chocolate. Velvety-textured and opulent on the palate, it has loads of flavor, enough structure to evolve for 2-3 years, and a lengthy, fruit-filled finish."

"It offers up an herbaceous nose with notes of sage, thyme, blueberry, and blackberry in a jammy, ripe style. It is an excellent value for drinking over the next 5 years."

"Inky purple. Sexy, oak-spiced aromas and flavors of black and blue fruits, with a smoky nuance gaining strength with air. Juicy, precise wine with very good finishing sweetness and gentle tannic grip."

"Bright ruby. A wild, pungent bouquet presents dark berries, anise,and a peppery overtone. Sappy cassis and blackberry flavors have depth and grip. Finishes spicy, with good cut, leaving a bitter cherry note behind. I suspect that I caught this wine a few months early."

"It gives up a bit more aromatic complexity with ramped up concentration and volume. In the glass, notes of blueberry, blackberry, exotic spices, and pepper lead to a plush, silky, 60-second finish."

"Inky purple. Dark berry preserves, cola, smoky oak and sandalwood on the intensely scented nose. Weighty and broad, with unlikely vivacity to its ripe blueberry and cherry compote flavors. Toasty, sweet and velvety in texture, with superb finishing thrust and persistent sweetness. This exotic, velour-like wine gains spiciness and floral character with air, and shows a suave blend of fruit and tannins; it should be even better with a few years of bottle age."
