---|---|
Nose | Nice varietal aromas, typical of the Bobal variety. Red berries and liquorice, with bitter herbs, flowers, spices and a blood-ferrous remembrance. |
Palate | Lively and crisp, this wine of Bodegas Murviedro is very structured, as is usually the case with Bobal wines. Still, this is by no means a fruit bomb. Ripe tannins and a long finish with smokey and earthy remembrances. |
Our personal opinion | Cheerful, but not banal, the red wine Sericis Cepas Viejas Bobal 2019 shows that Bobal is a variety worth delving into. |
