Numanthia 2016 (75cl)

[ 97pts Rated by James Suckling in 2022 Annual Report*]

Bodega Numanthia is the diamond of Toro, an untapped diamond, requiring expert hands to cultivate and shape the complex and elegant aromas of its wines.

Numanthia is the Estate's Signature. Intense and powerful thanks to its 18 months ageing in french barrels. Its style relies on a selection of exceptional vineyards (more than 60 years old), own-rooted and non-irrigitated.

Bright cherry red with ruby highlights. Numanthia 2016 is a fresh, yet expressive wine. It first reveals a fruity nose with cranberries, blackcurrant and violet notes, then hints of cinnamon, clovesand black pepper followed by delicate and balsamic aromas with mint,
eucalyptus and sandalwood. Firm on the palate with a harmonious, wide and balanced development. The finish is gentle and long, with minty, minerals and red berry notes.
