A blend of old Grenache (40 years) and Syrah vines, Picos Pardos reveals intense fruity aromas with a subtle hint of spice brought out by controlled ageing. The palate is structured by soft, well-balanced tannins. Excellent value for money, that's for sure!

Not overwhelmed by this wine, not really intense as described in the comments, and whose structure is unbalanced by alcohol.

for 7.90 it's a lovely fruity summer red in the "worked" style of Spanish wines.
