Oct 15, 2020
Wine Spectator October 2020 issue is here! Three wines from Bodegas Elias Mora have been highlighted in this issue.
SPAIN: NEW RELEASES
Descarte 2015 - 92 points
“Cocoa, toasty and licorice notes frame a core of plum and currant flavors in this firm, structured red. Muscular tannins need time to soften, but this shows depth and intensity overall. Best from 2021 through 2031. 833 cases made, 300 cases imported.”
Gran Elias Mora 2014 - 92 points
“Espresso, licorice and smoky notes frame black cherry, currant and sanguine flavors in this firm red. Shows good density, with enough acidity to stay lively. A sleeping giant. Best from 2021 through 2035. 750 cases made, 125 cases imported.”
Elias Mora Crianza 2016 - 91 points
“This red is rich and deep, in a savory style. Espresso, loamy earth and mineral notes frame currant, fig, cocoa and clove flavors. The muscular tannins are well-integrated, while firm acidity keeps this focused. Compact but energetic. Drink now through 2028. 7,000 cases made, 1,500 cases imported.”
