Tasting: 2006 Compañía Vitivinícola Tandem Navarra Ars Mácula
Tandem's 2006 Mácula is an unfiltered blend of 60 Merlot and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 24 months in concrete vats and 26 months in French oak.
Garnet in color with a nice ruby red at the edge. I would say a medium legs with aromas of black cherry, minerals, and a mid-level toastiness to it. The flavor boasts a bouquet of raspberry, black cherry and spices. A nice medium / full body with a juicy texture and very well balanced with a great acidity. The wine has a good level of tannins and early acidity so I suggest decanting. The tasting occurred after 24 hours of decanting
I believe this is a great value at $25US.
