Quinta Sardonia, Tierra de Castilla

Fandiddlytastic, that’s all that needs to be said!  But here’s a little more.  From fields metres away from Ribero del Duero, originally a project of Peter Sissek of Pingus fame.

The wine is made both to organic and bio-dynamic principles.  Imagine naked men and woman, collecting grapes under the moonlight chanting in ancient tongues whilst they feel the rhythm of the land.  If you died with this on your lips, it would be a fantastic way to go. Lush, deep, carnal and mineral all at once.  Wood smoke, allspice and all manner of husky leathery spices, dark florals – liquorice, tobacco and bluebells, mild chocolate and old flowers in earth. The palate is deep and relaxed – a dark cave full of mild chocolatey plum and black cherry fruits floating down a liquid mineral-anise river chocked full of great spice to a long oak/acid finish. Your juices will be beyond flowing; we hope you get home safely!  Oh, a little bit about the grapes –  Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Garnacha Tinta, Malbec – a fabulous blend
