Reviews of 2005 Torremilanos, Finca Torremilanos, Cyclo Ribera Del Duero Proprietary Blend
94 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
February 2008
This meticulously produced wine is sourced from 85- to 100+-year-old Tempranillo vines with a tiny amount of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot in the blend. Torremilanos makes its own barrels, purchasing, aging, and coopering the wood. The 2003 Cyclo, which spends 18 months in new French oak, is purple-colored with complex aromas of mineral, vanilla, toast, spice box, blackberry, and licorice. Sumptuous on the palate with layer upon layer of sweet black fruits, terrific concentration, and well-integrated tannins, this full-bodied wine is surprisingly forward and hedonistically styled. It is capable of making old bones but hard to resist now.

Saturated ruby. Inky cherry and blackberry on the nose, with deeper espresso, asphalt and licorice accents. Chewy and packed with dark fruit flavors accompanied by smoky, meaty qualities and firmed by solid tannins. Finishes with strong cherry pit and bitter chocolate notes and impressive power, gaining sweetness with aeration. This is almost painfully young but clearly has the material to repay cellaring.
