Numanthia Numanthia

James Suckling 96 Punkte: An instantly polished impression on the nose with lively dark plum and black cherry fruits swathed in spicy complexity. The texture is seamless, saturated in energetic dark plum fruit flavor. A great wine. Try from 2020. Wine Spectator 93 Punkte: This red is rich, yet remains lively, with bright berry and tangerine flavors mingling with currant, cocoa and toasty notes. Well-integrated tannins and citrusy acidity support the plush texture. Vibrant, in the modern style. Drink now through 2028. 6,500 cases made. — TM Parker-Gutiérrez 91 Punkte: I found the 2014 Numanthia to be quite oaky and a little underwined for the élevage it had. It's overtly tannic and leaves the mouth and tongue with a sandpaper-like feeling. It finishes dry. Lay down or have with powerful food. It's high in alcohol and has moderate acidity, which increases the heavy sensation and palate fatigue. For fans of the style. 80,000 bottles produced.
