Telmo Rodriguez Dehesa Gago Toro 2019 2019 (91 VM)
“Dark violet. Sharply focused scents of fresh dark berries, candied flowers, licorice and baking spices. Silky and appealingly sweet, offering juicy, spice-laced blueberry and cherry cola flavors that tighten up slowly on the back half. Shows very good depth as well as vivacity and finishes with strong floral persistence and harmonious tannins that fold smoothly into the wine’s clinging dark fruit.” – J.R.
