The Abadia Retuerta Pago Valdebellon 1998 is a product of the exceptional Abadia Retuerta winery, located in Spain's Duero Valley. This venerable Cabernet Sauvignon is a testament to the dedication and uniqueness of its creators. The Abadia Retuerta's utmost care to detail is reflected in the comprehensive, 24-month ageing process in new French oak barrels, lending the wine its distinct finesse and complexity.

The result of such delicate craftsmanship presents a sophisticated palate with an enveloping velvety texture. It boasts a bouquet of ripe forest fruits and spices, complemented by evocative undernotes of cocoa and roasted coffee beans. This, combined with a striking dark cherry hue, makes the Abadia Retuerta Pago Valdebellon 1998 one of the most captivating wines of its region.

Distinguished by structure and depth, this lavish Spanish red is truly an epitome of premium viticulture and a celebration of the Abadia Retuerta Pago Valdebellon 1998.

Vinous (90)

Good medium ruby. Explosive aromas of black cherry, roasted tomato, olive, game and nutty oak. Sweet, lush and gamey; a bit less densely packed than the young 2001 but still stuffed with fruit. Shows a syrah-like animal aspect.

Wine Advocate (93)

Spain's most consistently great winery continues to turn out exciting wines. There are four Unico Reservas currently in the market. The 1985 Unico Reserva is already revealing considerable complexity and low acid, plump, round, rich flavors. There is no amber to be found in the wine's deep ruby/purple color. The nose offers tobacco, smoke, tar, and gobs of sweet black cherry fruit aromas. Full-bodied, with a layered, nuanced character, high glycerin (hence the sweetness in the flavors), and a lush, round, generously-endowed finish, this is a substantial as well as elegant, savory style of Unico Reserva that can be drunk now and over the next 15+ years. Importer: A Christopher Cannan Selection, Europvin USA, Watertown, MA; tel. (617) 924-7620

Vinous (95)

Inky ruby. Highly aromatic scents of ripe cherry and dark berries, singed plum, cured tobacco and succulent herbs, with a vanilla undertone. Sweet, expansive and powerful, offering intense black and blue fruit flavors with smoke and floral accents. Rich and full but surprisingly lively, with excellent finishing thrust and sweet, harmonious tannins adding grip. Shows the ripeness of the vintage to good effect; this is a somewhat approachable and exotic Unico, especially with some air, but it has the concentration to age slowly.
