Tasting note
The just-bottled 2015 Pruno is a young, fruit-driven and straightforward blend of Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon from young and older vines in their 63-hectare organically-farmed estate, located around the winery by the river Duero. 2015 was a very warm year and the wine is ripe without excess, juicy and tasty, with a minty and chocolate touch perhaps from the one year it spent in oak barrels. No less than 395,000 bottles and 2,015 magnums were produced in 2015, so this should be readily available, and as always represents a good value in Ribera del Duero. Drink Date: 2017-2019. Score - 90. (Luis Gutierrez, robertparker.com, Feb. 28, 2017)
This dry and cherry-red coloured red showcases a complex nose releasing woody, spicy and fruity scents. You will be charmed with this full-bodied wine revealing a broad texture, fleshy tannins and a medium finish.
94 Robert Parker: Wow! Full-bodied with an opaque purple color in addition to an extraordinary bouquet of charcoal, wood smoke, creme de cassis and blackberries intermixed with hints of acacia flowers and licorice, this stunning, multidimensional 2010 is loaded. Its texture, richness, complexity, purity and length result in a wine that considerably over-delivers.
