Tasted blind, it was absolutely stunning and screamed Burgundy. Been saying it for years. Old Rioja, don’t tell anyone!

Disappointing selection of 4 bottles that all seemed to show excessive roasted fruit, more so than previous bottles I've tried. Sad to say these did not show up to par.

More advanced than the '26 but such a cool old school wine.

Smokey tea (Lapsang souchong), leather . Crazy color. Vibrant caramel. Still very lively (like me, birth year wine). The acid keeps it super fresh, but it isn’t harsh at all

Hi toned with match stick, porcini, tart berry, and strawberry leaf. Powerful but with elegance and great acidity.
