Sei Solo Preludio 2020 (750ml) Atlas PeakThe grapes for this wine come vineyards in the villages of La Horra, Gumiel de Izan and Moradillo from 12 to 80 year old vines. Displaying a good vibrant deep cherry red color with fragrant, clear notes of cherry drop and violet there is a beautifully unadorned yet brooding quality to this; it feels deep, vinous and vibrant, flecked with bright red fruit notes, sweet earth and a darker, more spiced character on the finish.

but best after 2026

Winemaking is typical of the region: a long maceration

I suggest a long wait before you open your bottles

A blend of mostly Garnatxa and Syrah with trace amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grown in various plots ranging from granite to limestone throughout the appellation

showing garnet reflections while young

bringing sweet spicy and nice toasty notes

Powerful on the nose with primary aromas of ripe fruit accompanied by complex spicy and balsamic notes and a slight touch of vanilla

It offers delicate

it is brooding and intense

Black cherries dominate the palate

It's easily the finest vintage of this cuvée I've tasted and should be snatched up by savvy readers
