Attractive nose full of fruit and liquorice, combined with notes of aging. Full bodied on the palate, although silky and pleasant with a perfectly polished tannin and an agreeable finish, leaving an aftertaste reminiscent of black fruit and undergrowth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><b>de Bardos Ars Epica from Spain ($25.99)<\/b> &#8211; 100% Tempranillo.\u00a0 Ars \u00c9pica is a modern, fresh, elegant Signature Series Wine created from carefully selected grapes and later aged for 16 months in new, French oak barrels. Only made from high quality vintages. Very limited production. Old, low-yield vineyards, selected from the best areas of Ribera del Duero, after many years of research, for their mesoclimates and soils that are well-suited to grape growing,. The most noteworthy vineyards are those located in the extreme north of the designation, in the zone of Anguix and Olmedillo de Roa, positioned on south facing, sloping land with excellent drainage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><b>de Bardos Ars Mitica from Spain ($29.99)<\/b> &#8211; 90% Tempranillo, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.\u00a0 Ars M\u00edtica is a modern, highly structured and complex Signature Series Wine created from exquisitely selected grapes.
