"Bozeto is a grand little wine, rounded and complete, full of fruit and very well-defined by its terroir, by the land; the earthy notes, of iron and graphite, are very evident. Keep the wine on the palate and after swallowing it, close your eyes and try to imagine the taste of a hearty lentil stew, as this will give you a really clear picture of the particular character we're trying to describe to you. This is a wine that smells and tastes of earth and fruit, honest, expressive, juicy... very complete."
"The fresh and fruit-driven 2016 Bozeto de Exopto is a blend of 50% Garnacha from Monte Agudo in Alfaro, 40% Tempranillo from Ábalos and 10% Graciano, also from Alfaro, to provide acidity and freshness. It's a fruit-driven, slightly grapey red, and this cuvée, with its high percentage of juicy, round and ripe Garnacha, has more of a Mediterranean character. 2016 was a high-yielding vintage, perhaps more so for Tempranillo. This is precise and clean, everything seems to be in its place, and the wine has settled with some time in bottle.
"Very sweet maraschino cherry nose, but in spite of that this has healthy tannins and a nice acidity. If the alcohol didn't show slightly it would rate higher. Drink now."
