TASTING NOTES: This wine was made from truly top-quality grapes of excellent ripeness, which is demonstrated from the beginning to the end of the tasting. The wine displays an intense colour with a bluish rim and a cherry-red core. Attractive, perfectly integrated fruit aromas come to the fore with power and concentration.
92 Points - "Black cherry and black plum flavors show focus and depth in this rich, polished red. Espresso and mineral notes add complexity, and there's a firm core of well-integrated tannins. Drink now through 2014." — Wine Spectator, November 30, 2007.
92 Points - "The 2005 Emilio Moro is purple-colored with a complex bouquet of wood smoke, toast, crushed stone, and blackberry. Supple, ripe, and forward, this tasty wine will evolve for 1-2 years but can be enjoyed now through 2015." — The Wine Advocate, February 2008.
