2006 Vintage. Large and in charge. This wine is very showy offering a nose of nutmeg, sage, black cherry, black licorice, cedar, & fall leaves. Big Wine! Black cherry, rhubarb, raspberry, black berry, cassis, blueberry and dark chocolate. Great purity for being this powerful. Finish is long and fine tuned.

Deep! Color and aromas. Primary. Smells and tastes almost like a barrel sample. Powerful, firm and very long. Structure is overwhelming aromas at the moment. Needs 3-5 years minimum.

Lush dark fruit - blackberry, blueberry, cassis and black plum with notes of unsweetened chocolate, vanilla, coffee and wet earth. Full-bodied with firm tannins, great balance of acidity, dry finish.

That's pretty fantastic. If you want an expensive, big spanish wine that doesn't say 'vega-sicilia' on the front this is a solid choice.

Deep cuts. Closing the deal wine. I'll never get this again and I feel changed. Unreal.
