Vinos Pinol, Ludovicus 2005


Vinos Pinol, Ludovicus 2005

The 2005 Ludovicus is a great value wine from Spain It is a tank-fermented and oak-aged (for three months) wine made from 35% Grenache, 30% Tempranillo, 25% Syrah, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Terra Alta region. It exhibits a deep ruby/purple color along with a lush nose of cherry liqueur, licorice, and pepper. On the tongue it is rich, velvety and quite opulent. This "new-world" blend is fruity, spicy, and pure. Drink now or consume it over the next several years. You can find this wine for about $10 in QFC in the Seattle area.
