Tasting notes
The 2006 Big Bang is 50% Garnacha, 40% Tempranillo, and 10% Graciano. The Tempranillo and Graciano were aged for 9 months in barrel. Purple colored, the wine offers up a nose of cedar, spice box, lavender, black cherry and blackberry. This is followed by a full-flavored, loaded, primary wine with a supple-texture, layers of fruit, excellent richness and balance, and a pure finish. This tasty wine will evolve for 2-3 years but can be enjoyed now and over the next 6-8 years. Importer: Patrick Mata, Ole Imports; www.oleimports.com

Bright purple. Sexy red and dark berry preserve aromas are free of earth and animal qualities. Silky and medium-bodied, with bright red berry flavors perked up on the back end by an urgent minerality. Pinot-like in its zesty sweetness, clarity and suave texture. Really delicious.
