Big and vibrant and a lot better than last bottle which was stewey and alcoholic. Feels quite sophisticated even. — 2 months ago

Medium-dark color with some bricking, this is more backward and less evolved than the 1990 side-by-side, showing dark fruits, some Brett, but some tannic structure as well, lacks that sweet American note of the 1990, long, lingering finish, and I’d guess another 3-5 years of further improvement.

I really adore these early Pesquera Crianza (the regular cuvée, the Gran Reserva was always too much of an oak show for my palate), a wonderful find a few weeks ago while doing some cellar rearranging!! — 13 days ago

Solid effort: BDX blend from ARG, nice fruit profile, smooth integrated tannins, bit one dimensional but pleasant enough — 2 days ago

Vintage 2016 | Stubborn when opened, so I put half in a decanter for four hours. That is suitable to give a good dinner experience. Cedar, chocolate impression, round taste. Paired with ribeye. And cheese. Nice effort. | Diam-corked — 3 months ago
