Popped and poured. This was singing from the start. Loads of dark cherries, blackberries, dark cocoa and earth. Long finish. Outstanding compliment to the meal.

Rich, dense, and complex. Lots of mushroom and wet earth and black tea with loads of cherry and blackberry notes. Lots of life. Will only get better over next 10 years. Absolutely amazing.

More like a barrel sample now. Great with tapas. Lots of concentration and can go on for years

190722 @apto con vero. Un vino muy balanceado. Un aroma a madera, mucho carácter y aftertaste sin acidez y liviano

Smooth with soft tannins. Powerful nose of over-ripe strawberries and cedar. Stewed plums, vanilla, and a spicy lingering finish. Beautiful.

2010, purple color, beautiful acidity, tasted again 4 days later and lots of fruit and backbone.
