Didn’t used to like this. May be a vintage thing. Really well balanced and a killer value.

Enjoyable Tempranillo and cab blend. Great with basque tapas. Opened up well over and hour but could have used a decant. More subtle fruit medium to full bodied and a little earthy

Terrific but too young, loved it anyway. Really acidic, not so much tannic but needs time to mature for full potential. Today, still very nice, full bodied, lots of flavor, hard not to like but flavors are a bit difficult to tease out, I don’t get Pruno but dark fruit. It’s tangy, good with food.

Rounded fruit, little spicy, bit green, just sitting on the edge of being juicy, but stops just shy.

Prune highlights. Coffee vanilla from the wood. Reasonably tannic

Just tried the 2016 and it is too young. Has a tobacco, earthy flavor with a hint of cinnamon and spice.

Enjoyed with Madrina Nini in La Parguera during our 18/19 visit to PR. Strong tannins, medium body.
