Don’t wait to grab the last bottles of this superb vintage!
“Horizonte 2006 is aged for 10 months in new barrels, primarily French oak. Deep purple in color, the aromas are slightly developed and very pronounced. Notes of cedar, smoke, licorice, and blackberries give way to a dense, powerful wine with excellent aromas and beautiful ripe tannins.” (Robert Parker - February 2008)

Powerful and aromatic, with enough tannins to leave a lingering finish. A very good wine, offering decent value for money.
