Opens with red currants, black cherry, cigar box and a back note of liquorice. Full-bodied with polished tannins and good acidity. A great wine to buy for the boss.

Reviews and Ratings

Jane Staples - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Made from 85% Tempranillo, 10% Mazuelo, 5% Graciano and aged 26 mos in Fr oak barrels. Fragrant cherry, vanilla, toast aromas lead into a delicious flavourful palate giving cherry, vanilla, licorice, toast and oak. Rich and full-bodied with elegant finish. A great gift wine.
Tasted Sept 2016
Conde de Valdemar is a blend of 85% Tempranillo, 10% Mazuelo and 5% Graciano from the Bodegas Valdemar's oldest vineyards. The wine was aged over two years in French and American oaks barrels and then 48 months in bottle prior to release. On the nose and palate the wine is black cherries, cedar spice and cigar box and is ready for a rare prime rib. - Community Wine Reviews
