Solanera Viñas Viejas 2015
Description
Un des vins les plus prisés de la côte méditerranéenne espagnole est de retour : voici le millésime 2015 de Solanera, vin rouge au succès notable qui a obtenu 92 points Parker. Il s’agit d’un des meilleurs rapports qualité/prix de la scène vinicole espagnole, dont la philosophie reste inchangée par rapport au millésime 2014 : frais et fruité, il se révèle facile à boire et offre une belle structure, qu’il conserve en permanence.
Fiche technique
L'avis des experts
"The 2015 Solanera used to wear the ultimate Spanglish label, which said "Viñas Viejas of Monastrell" even if it was always a blend (in this vintage, the blend includes 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Garnacha Tintorera). The revamped 2015 has a completely different label that only keeps the "viñas viejas" moniker. In this wine, from the joint venture with U.S. importer Eric Solomon that started in 1999, they used part of full clusters and sourced the grapes from Casa Marta, a nine-hectare, head-pruned, dry-farmed plot on very stony soils in the north of Yecla at the foot of the Mount Arabí. It fermented in concrete vats and open-top barrels and matured in barrique, each variety separately, for some ten months, after which it was blended and bottled. This is the vintage of the big change in this wine, where, as with the majority of its siblings, there is better balance and more integrated oak, more freshness and better balance. The nose is quite captivating, especially after some time in the glass, when it starts developing some floral aromas, perfect ripeness, no warmth or alcohol and a powerful, yet terribly balanced palate with concentration and elegance, fine-grained tannins and clean, focused flavors. This is my favorite Solanera to date. 60,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2017."
