2005 Bodega Numanthia Termes "Numanthia" Toro Florent Baumard prefers to harvest

Florent Baumard prefers to harvest as late as the vintage weather permits

but the formatting is spectacular

very sweet fruit here

spring blossom and apricot notes lead the way in this light- to medium-bodied white

Utterly seamless and suave but very youthfully unevolved

2005 Bodega Numanthia Termes "Numanthia" Toro Florent Baumard prefers to harvestWorn leather, hickory and earth scents accent the deep fruit that Numanthia is known for. But its the polished mouthfeel and consistent delivery of flavor and texture on this 05 that distinguishes it from so many big bombers from Toro. By the time its done you hardly feel the tannins on the finish, which lingers comfortably for minutes. Excellent wine to drink over the next six years.
