Perfume is ravishing. Raspberries, cherries, tobacco and tar. Wonderful detail on the palette. Presents like a Bdx, but with a softer approach. Fruit profile is blackberries and blueberries, but with a near perfect density. Thoroughly impressive.

Just edited my rating. This has evolved to another level over the last two hours. Mid-palette is heavier and more plush...

@Mike Rowe @David A Lentine @Ron R @Kirk Alexander Thank you to my Bud Ron for sharing this special bottle with me. You guys all know how I feel about wine. They are meant to be shared., enjoyed & drank to encapsulate an an evening or a special occasion. The only thing better than this wine and the others that were enjoyed is the company of my friends which joined us to enjoy it!!! AND you were very much there with us Ron in thought & Spirit!! This was by far the WOTN. As my friend Kirk pointed out "The best producer in Spain". Perfectly intergraded fruit and sweet tannins. Touch of spice which made it oh., so nice!! It is in full stride right now. Such finesse and elegance with an impeccable finish. Thanks Bud!! Cheers!!
