L'avis des experts
A pretty cabernet with currant, blackberry and sweet tobacco with some leather. Mushroom, too. It’s full-bodied and chewy with fine tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Needs time to soften and come together. Try after 2022.
The nose of the 2013 Vinya La Scala Cabernet Sauvignon Gran Reserva reveals strong aromatics, with notes of dried roses, incense, cigar ash, creamy oak and Mediterranean herbs, with a notable percentage of the aromas coming from the élevage. The palate reveals pungent flavors and piercing acidity that gives it an acute twist. 9,120 bottles produced.
An exuberant youngster even after its two years in French and American oak, and three years in bottle, Cabernet Sauvignon with a Mediterranean spin. A popular style. Develops into a fine middle age: the 2001's palate is rounded with smooth tannins, and still the vigour of the dark Cabernet fruit, from a vineyard planted in 1963. Drinking Window 2019 - 2030.
Millésimes: 2013 2012
Demasiada acidez para mi gusto que delimita negativamente la presencia de la fruta y la tipicidad de la Cabernet.
Muuuy rico. Merece la pena probarlo.
