Manga del Brujo 2008, Calatayud

Manga del Brujo, 2008, Calatayud, Calatayud Garnacha, Best wine from Calatayud

The 2008 Manga del Brujo was made by Norrel Robertson, MW. It is a blend of 65% Garnacha, 15% Syrah, 15% Tempranillo, and 5% Mazuelo aged for five months in French and American oak. The Garnacha component was sourced from vines over 100 years of age.

 

At the last 2 Wines of Spain tastings in Ireland, Manga del Brujo was voted the best (2010) and 2nd best (2009) Spanish wine in Ireland under €15. It is very rich, deep and complex and probably offers more flavour per € than any other wine we've tasted!

 

The 2007 Manga got the following review;

'Opaque purple-colored, it offers up a toasty, smoky bouquet with aromas of mineral, black cherry, and blueberry. This is followed by a medium- to full-bodied wine with an elegant personality, a silky texture, intense, savory blue and black fruit flavors, superb balance, and 2-3 years of aging potential. This pleasure-bent wine will offer prime drinking from 2011 to 2020.' Robert Parker 91 Points.
