2004 Tinto Pesquera

[TheEngineer]

I've had this wine a few times and each time it is impressive. Deep garnet purple in color, opaque. Powerful, deep and intense nose of dark fruits and spices and the image is of a wild, vivid and powerful wine.

On the palate, the nose confirms the impression. Smooth, lush, full bodied, powerful, flavours arrives in waves and has a long finish. While thick, there is a nice acidity to it which allows it to still be brooding but not overbearing. Very nice especially for the price. ($30?? or so). Tough to beat with that price.
