Manga del Brujo 2014

The 2014 Manga del Brujo is mostly Garnacha with about 15% Syrah, 10% Tempranillo and 5% Mazuelo fermented in concrete tanks and aged mostly in concrete, but some of the components of the blend aged in oak barrels. 2014 was a balanced year, with good ripeness without excess. It has a young nose with floral hints and a touch of orange peel. It should develop more complexity in the bottle, as I saw tasting this next to the 2013. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, good freshness and acidity, supple and tasty, ending with some meaty, almost salty flavors. Some 100,000 bottles produced.
