1985 vintage. A very nice surprise and another testimony to the ageing potential of Bordeaux wines. At the time this estate was still owned by the Spanish Forner family (also Marques de Caceres Rioja). Solid colour. Tobacco and cedar wood dominate the nose, with a subtle hint of vanilla lurking in the background. Medium-bodied, with still good black fruit, fresh acidity and ripe tannin. Good cedary length too. No signs of fatigue at 37 years old. Well worth seeking out. Note that my bottle had a perfect level.

2015 vintage. A bit more Cabernet Sauvignon (57%) than Merlot. Cedary nose with a hint of caramel that comes back in the taste. A bit rustic with a dry short finish. Not up to Cru Classé quality
