Bodegas Pinord Penedes Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva Chateldon 2004
Member Review by duncan 906:
I bought this bottle of wine for £10 from the website www.bidforwine.co.uk/auctions/show/117421.Penedes is a region in north-east Spain between Barcelona and the coast that got DO status in 1960 although there has been viticulture here since at least the Romans. The region is well known for sparkling Cava wines but these now have their own DO.Bodegas Pinord is a large wine producer in this area.My bottle is made from cabernet sauvignon,one of the 'international' varieties rather than native Spanish grapes.The grapes were grown in the company's own vineyard of Muntanyans and the wine spent two years in oak barrels followed by a further three years of bottle aging before release.I started my bottle last night with my supper of pork steak.It is a fairly full bodied wine.There was plenty of a blackberry and bramble style fruit and a hint of spice and vanilla on the finish. The tannins were smooth and not intrusive and gave good structure.In short,this was a lovely wine that went well with the pork steaks
