Description

Winemaker Notes

Deep ruby color with cherry notes. Great complexity and aromatic quality of compote fruit, licorice stick, and those from aging such as spicy and balsamic aromas. Light vanillas, toffees and chocolates also appear. The palate is smooth and silky, with well defined tannins and a long and pleasant after taste.

This is a perfect partner for red meats, game, oily fish and cured cheeses.

Critical Acclaim

97 James Suckling: This is very ripe with blackberries, dried fruit, toasted oak and black licorice on the nose. Full-bodied with ultra-fine, linear tannins and a racy, refined finish. This has fantastic structure and length. It goes on for minutes. It needs time to open and refine even more. One of the best Imperiale Gran Reservas in a very long time. Drink after 2023.

94 Wine Spectator: This vivid red shows good momentum, with solid tannins encasing cherry, cola, clove and balsamic notes, marked with cedar, anise and spice elements. The flavors are well-integrated, but this complex red has a long life ahead of it.

92 Wine & Spirits: The 2015 vintage took this wine toward luscious ripeness and graham-cracker scents of oak, solidly built in what appears to be a modern style. A day later, the wine’s elegance takes the lead, the impression still juicy and clean, less bluntly oaked, while the structure is more refined. A wine to cellar for the long term

The Wine Country.
