The 2008 El Nido is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Monastrell also aged for 24 months in new French and American oak. It gives up a bit more aromatic complexity with ramped up concentration and volume. In the glass, notes of blueberry, blackberry, exotic spices, and pepper lead to a plush, silky, 60-second finish. Give this behemoth 6-8 years to become civilized and drink the Clio cuvee while you are waiting.

Mia ★★★★★

The 24 months in new French and American oak really shows—this wine has layers of dark fruit and a velvety finish that kept us talking all night. Perfect for a special occasion where you want something bold and memorable.

Thomas T. ★★★★★

Bought this as a splurge for a dinner party and the 24 months in new oak really shows — deep, concentrated dark fruit with a serious backbone. The blend of Cabernet and Monastrell gives it layers that kept everyone guessing. Glad I grabbed it while it was available.

Grace ★★★★☆

I was expecting a bit more subtlety from the oak, but the 70-30 Cabernet-Monastrell blend really delivers on concentration. It’s a bold, powerful red that opens up nicely after an hour in the glass.
