ArÃnzano 2001
Noble, refined and seductive, our 2001 Pago begins with a potent and fresh attack - very velvety without being heavy, and exhibits perfect balance. Very long on the palate, the evolution can only be described as 'enveloping', with a full finish - thick and silky.
Exhibiting a sharp, intense aroma on the nose with hints of black fruits, blackberry, plum, black leather, cocoa and cherry with Armagnac, this wine has a great capacity for aging in the bottle.
