Bodega Numanthia 'Termanthia' 2004

Bodega Numanthia 'Termanthia' 2004 Organic Sustainable Ungrafted Vines Bodega Numanthia's Termanthia 2004 is a monumental old-vine Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) from the rugged Toro DO in Castilla y León, Spain, crafted from centenarian vines on schist and granite soils at high altitudes. Vineyard notes: "Numanthia’s style depends on the selection of exceptional vines, aged between 50 and 100 years old, ungrafted and non-irrigated. Year after year, their low yields deliver grapes of extreme concentration with intense fruit and structure." Tasting Profile Deep garnet hue with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, dark plum, licorice, graphite, smoked meat, and Mediterranean herbs. The massive palate delivers explosive concentration, firm polished tannins, layered dark fruit, chocolate, earthy minerals, and a vibrant, lingering finish. Key Traits Body: Full-throttle and powerful yet balanced, with freshness and profound depth. Aging: Mature peak drinking through 2035+ (94+ points critics); pairs with roast lamb, venison, or aged hard cheeses. Terroir: Extreme old vines yield Toro's signature intensity and volume with remarkable elegance.
