2005 J. Miquel JanÃ© PenedÃ¨s – Spain, Catalunya, PenedÃ¨s (11/11/2006)
100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Gorgeous Ruby color, very clear. The nose shows a light vanilla/cherry nose with cassis liquor, rose petals and a touch of spice as it opens. Pretty fun to smell though the nose is the highlight. Fruit driven in the mouth with a fully dry aspect and medium acidity. Raspberry and cherry make up the palate and though it is a fun wine to drink the complexity of the nose does not come through fully.
