Just a festival of nutty, sweet, chalky, herbaceous flavor notes, all well integrated. Eye-opening and the WOTN for me.

This 2001 was probably the most expressive and precise of the 9 Columbu offerings. Thanks to @Gianluct Torellix !

Sherry-like complexity with great length, structure and Mediterranean feel. Fascinating wine. Sweeter yet more substantial than the 2005.

Just bottled after almost 9 years in barrel without topping. The most sherry-like wine I've had without adding any distillate. Harvested with high sugars but very light and extremely savory.
