Winery review: "Even better is the 2010 Avante, which comes from a vineyard planted in 1960. This unfiltered, 2,000-case cuvee is also 100% Tinto Fino. It offers plenty of charcoal, graphite, black currant, licorice and forest floor notes in a rich, full-throttle format. Consume it over the next 5–7 years." Bob Parker - 92 points
My review: After uncorking this great bottle of wine I had a feeling this was a good one. The berry flavors are slightly subtle making you wonder what's in store for the palate. Blackberry and raspberry on the nose with beautiful aromas of oak and cedar, and hints of dark chocolate. High acidity, sweet blackberry and cherry notes with a great blend of chocolate and earth notes. A very good wine.
