Lurton’s top wines include the 2008 Campo Alegre made from 100% Tinta de Toro. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it offers up aroma of sandalwood, incense, mineral, licorice, and blackberry. In the mouth it reveals considerable structure as well as layers of spicy fruit. Give this dense effort another 4-5 years of cellaring and drink it from 2015 to 2023. Bodega Francois Lurton’s newest releases are uniformly excellent. Importer: Adam Sager, Winesellers Ltd., Skokie, IL; Tel. (847) 679-0121
