Clio was our fastest marketing alcoholic beverage finished the past twelvemonth. We virtually could not sustenance it in the outlet. This is the ordinal vintage, our ordinal Clio story and the 3rd hit for this Spanish gem from Jumilla, Spain. The past vintage, the 2003 vintage, normative 96 points from Robert Parker who also gave the 2002 vintage 93 points. This is fairly signal for a wine that, at that time, had single had two vintages at the rear it. After those put a bet on to rearward ratings, we and the bourgeois sold out directly.
The 2004 has freshly been free and we tasted it yesterday; it is every incredibly bit as well-behaved as the two antecedent vintages. This evenness is a byproduct of Jumilla, Spain which is a semi-dessert parcel of land and has terribly consistent climate.
At the helm of this Spanish severe is Australian virtuoso vintner Chris Ringland. His Clio is a blend of 60 period old Monastrell (also famed as Mourvedre) and 25 time period old Cabernet Sauvignon vines. The inebriant exhibits a impenetrable violet colour on beside a well-heeled layering of dull fruits and roasted drink and loam. It is a inundated corporeal alcoholic beverage - but not irresistible - remarkable concentration, multilayered mouth-feel and an decidedly drawn out coating.
Without interview this wine out-drinks Jordan, Silver Oak and Stags Leap at a piece of the price; it can be enjoyed now with meats or any new forceful dinnertime. Even better, it has the construction to floor for 8 to10 age if you can elude its influence.
