Tasting notes
Bodegas Abanico brings us Los Colmillos, a gem from the heart of Castilla y León. This 2008 vintage, with its years of aging, promises a delightful experience. The lack of specific grape information only adds to the intrigue, letting you trust your senses with each pour.
In Volume 36 of 'Drops of God', it's Fujieda who introduces this wine to Shizuku. He highlights how the tannins and fruit flavors are perfectly balanced, showcasing the wine's full potential without overwhelming the palate. It's a scene that truly captures the essence of what makes this bottle special.
Pour a glass and you'll be greeted by a deep garnet hue. The nose is open and inviting, with rich aromas of blackberry and black cherry. There's also a hint of dried herbs and undergrowth, adding to the complexity and anticipation.
On the palate, you'll first notice the lush fruitiness. The acidity is robust, while the tannins are velvety, giving the wine a full-bodied feel. The finish is long, leaving a tapestry of complex flavors that linger. Tasting it, you realize just how deeply captivating Spanish wines can be.
