Numanthia Termes Description
Numanthia Termes Numanthia displays a deep cherry red hue with striking ruby reflections, shining clean and bright in the glass. The nose is captivating, layered with ripe black fruit aromas accented by warm spice and tobacco leaf, all set against a refined mineral backdrop that adds depth and elegance. On the palate, it’s expressive and full-bodied, unfolding rich black fruit flavors intertwined with hints of cinnamon, cedar, and a refreshing touch of menthol. Soft tannins and vibrant acidity carry through to a long, dynamic finish, creating a wine that feels both approachable and impressively profound. It pairs beautifully with grilled lamb, roasted meats, hearty stews, or aged Manchego, making every meal bold and memorable.
James Suckling: 93 Points
Blackberries, crushed stones and pressed flowers on the nose. Very perfumed. Medium-bodied with firm, lightly chewy tannins and a light dark-chocolate, bark and fresh-mushroom aftertaste. Vivid fruit. Crunchy.
Wine Advocate: 92 Points
The entry-level 2021 Termes wants to be an approachable and easier-to-understand varietal expression of the Tinta de Toro/Tempranillo sourced from younger vines (25 to 50 years old). It's ripe at 15% alcohol, juicy and fruit-driven, with a tender mouthfeel and fine tannins. Forty percent of the barrels used for the aging were 400-liter ones, and only 20% of them were new. The élevage lasted for 14 months. 142,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2023.
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
Fresh and poised, with concentrated blackberry paste and black plum fruit laced with an alluring thread of anise, sandalwood, violet, thyme and tar aromatics. This is finely balanced, with fine-grained tannins emerging to firm the lingering finish. Drink now through 2031. 12,250 cases made, 8,000 cases imported.
