Canopy Escondida 2018 (x3)
96 points from Robert Parker!
Bright, vivid ruby red color. On the nose, it has enormous complexity, with aromas of cherries, violets, gunpowder, smoked foods, plums, incense, raspberry, blackberry and wood, all assembled together with hints of minerals. It changes with every swirl of your glass.
On the palate, it’s silky and very fresh, easy drinking, with pleasant, polished tannins. It caresses the mouth and leaves you with an intense and explosive finish.

Founded in 2004 by Belarmino Fernandez and Alfonso Chacon, Canopy has (quite unassumingly) played a significant role in helping the wider world to appreciate what the ‘New Spain’ is capable of – Michel Bettane even went so far as to acknowledge them as ‘architects of the Spanish renassiance’. Belarmino and Alfonso are self-confessed ‘terroir obsessives’, driven by a desire to bottle the unique characteristics of their little corner of Sierra de Gredos.
