Dry red wine, blue-violet, deep pigmentation, funky smell that dissipated after awhile, on the nose blackberry, hint of sweetness, dried herbs, sweet smoke, on the palette black fruit, black cherry, sage. Full body, medium tannins but well integrated, medium acidity. Conclusion- Yummy, jammy, full bodied Syrah from a warm climate. — 7 days ago

Even at 13 years this is yet as powerful and robust as in its first years.
Loads of blackfruit and chocolate in the nose and some hints of tar.
In the mouth silky, long and a nice acidity to balance. It benefits btw from decanting as it is way better on day 2. — 7 months ago

Pairing with salmon ceviche and it worked. Very elegant sauv blanc with that passion fruit element. — 3 years ago

See my previous note in February 2026. Very similar to now. This is fulsome and savoury at once - black cherry and raspberry. Very easy to like. Like a hypothetical blend of Syrah and Merlot. The herbal savouriness of Syrah with the softness of a supple Merlot. Made by Alvaro Palacios. Love the flamboyant Spanish label. — 3 months ago
