Pino Doncel Vintage is an interesting blend with international grapes of Syrah and Merlot. The wines offer a surprising complexity with layers of flower, cinnamon, chocolate and ripe red fruits. The wine is well balanced and would be more integrated after 1-2 hours of aeration. Enjoy it for the whole night after a busy working day.
Being in a lesser-known appellation in South-East of Spain, Bodegas Bleda provide their wines in a very reasonable price as well as exciting quality. The grapes are all cultivated in organic practice , although the wines are not organic certified. The resulting wines are with good concentration, balanced acidity and complex.
