Volver Cuvée Old Vines 2018
Producer: Volver
Varietal: 87% Tempranillo-13% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: Central Spain
Alcohol: 15.5%
Tasting Notes:
Appearance: Deep ruby with a slightly garnet rim, reflecting some maturity.
Nose: Intense, ripe red and black fruit—black cherry, plum, and raspberry—lifted by notes of dried herbs, tobacco, and subtle sweet spice (cinnamon, clove). Earthy, mineral undertones and a hint of leather from age.
Palate: Full-bodied, concentrated fruit flavors of black cherry, dark plum, and a touch of red currant. Silky but substantial tannins from old vines provide structure; balanced acidity keeps the wine lively. Secondary flavors of leather, smoked herb, and dark chocolate develop on the midpalate and finish.
Finish: Long, warm finish with lingering fruit and spice, and a pleasant savory note.
Food Pairing: Pairs well with aged cheeses (Manchego, tome, or a semi-firm sheep’s cheese), grilled or roasted red meats, lamb chops, chorizo, mushroom dishes, hearty stews, and charcuterie. Also complements tapas-style plates and dishes with smoky or savory spices.
