This is a tough rating for a special wine. ex-Chateau, pristine, wax cap. Unbelievable $69 a bottle on a case buy. Despite some serious overstocking issues, I am very glad I bought this. Intense flavors of leather and tobacco and such a vibrant profile after 1/2 hr in the decanter, it is hard to believe this is a 1975. Still a mellowed backdrop of acidity and such a classical fine Tempranillo. Based on QPR this is a great value and the pristine ex-Chateau quality make this is 9.4+ for me
