Still intact. But it’s too ashy and bitter for me.

Better balance and more suppleness on day 2.

For 3 euros a bottle, this is a beautiful wine. Not too light but definitely a daily drinkable wine with or without food. — 8 years ago

Dark intensity. Ruby color. Nose medium with black cherry, blueberry, black plum, cedar, dried plum, dried cherries adding a touch of sweetness in the finish. Would pair with meat accompanied in a fruit based sauce. — 3 months ago

Bodegas Maurodos Cartago 2012 D.O. Toro, paired with a serious veal chop, roasted piquillos, thick-cut chef-grown potato chips, and tomatoes at Chibo. Brand new wine for the winery coming from a single plot of old vines and named for a landmark curve of the Duero river. 90% Tinta de Toro and 10% Touriga Naçional, aged 3 years in 100% new French oak and 1 year in the bottle. Dense savory and more concentrated than San Román. Superb integration of oak, cranberry, wet stones, needs time. 2,000 bottles produced. #gos2016 — 8 years ago

If you expect a powerful red with black fruit, lots of round tannins, structure and length, you will not be disappointed. Blackberries, plums, liquorice, smart oak, body. A hot vintage I guess, a bit too much for me at this stage, even though there is freshness. I recognize the quality regardless — 8 months ago

Ambitious red from the highest vineyard in San Román, Toro. Legado de Orniz is a new project I'm keen to follow. — 9 years ago
