2023 Descendientes de José Palacios 'Petalos'

Expressive black cherry, currant, licorice, mineral and smoke mingle in this focused red. The texture is gentle but firm, like a school teacher; well-integrated tannins and racy acidity will make you think this is the Mrs. Robinson of wines. No. 53 of Wine Spectator's Top 100 for 2015.
