Tasted blind with a Spanish wine importer. We all noticed the modern edge, but great structure, finesse and depth. I look forward to tasting the big papa - Pingus, in the future.

From different vines than the Pingus, so don't call this a second wine as it strives for its own identity and does a Damn good job trying. Less inky and concentrated than Pingus, but pretty to me a complete wine today, but here still.it could use another 3-5 years to settle down that stiff tannin.

Hedonistic and heady. Beautiful fine tannin. Not as over the top as other vintages
