El Toro Macha Utiel Requena Reserva 2016

A most complete wine in the Reserva style which means it’s had 12 months in oak. The balance is spot on with oak cradling the soft medium bodied fruit on the palate perfectly. Plush plum and cherry characters emerge with a slightly leathery complexity. Nice wine for drinking now.
