Romeo Predicador 2006

Sweet cherry, spicy oak nose. Really intense, smooth mouth, very fresh acidity. Vanilla and cherry fruit, a bit of spice. Really long finish with lots of ripe, silky tannins. The finish lasts for what seems like 20 minutes.

Expert Review

90 points - The Wine Advocate
The 2006 Predicador was aged for 19 months in seasoned oak. Dark ruby-colored, the nose has a slightly roasted character with aromas of cedar, mineral, scorched earth, violets, and blackberry. Round, ripe, and smooth- textured, it has enough underlying structure to evolve for 2-3 years. Nicely balanced and lengthy, it will drink well from 2012 to 2021.

Food Pairings

Very versatile. The better cuts of lamb. Most any meat braised or stewed. Game birds and poultry, especially duck.
