Release 20 (08,09,10)wonderfully deep, pure and intense. A slightly medicinal quality over lush fruit. Tight and dramatic. Very long. Needs a while to unpack.

Almost a perfect wine, shames the best Bordeaux first growths in big years. Peppery, Smokey, saline.

Strong dill component on the nose. Dark fruit. Sweet fruited and tastes so young. Rich but has acidity that keeps it bright. Wow

Quite a treat. The reserve blend. Needs a ton of time to really integrate but still delicious.

A blend of 1994, 1995 & 2000. Silky and supple. Power & grace. Beauty & the beast. Best Vega I've had the pleasure of tasting.

Blend of the 90, 91, and 94 vintages. Excellent. Tied for second with the 98 vintage in the flight of older Tempranillo
