The 2011 Gotim Bru is a multi-grape blend of Ull de Llebre (Tempranillo), Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah aged for ten months in American and French oak barrels, perfumed and pleasant, with ripe aromas of plums, raisins and prunes, some floral overtones and notes of spicy oak. The palate reveals ripe fruit, a powerful wine with big bones, dusty tannins and moderate acidity. Drink now-2015.
