2017 vintage is, unsurprisingly purple and inky. Olives come first on the nose, maybe with leather. Earthiness giving way to blackberry jam and baking spices.
This wine grips at your mouth. The palate shows indistinguishable berries and spices, tons of minerality, followed by sweat, or, if you prefer, leather. It ends with vegetal notes. It’s glorious, but will be better in 2-3 years or more.

Todavía muy jovencito, está duro pero tiene un buen margen de mejora... Lo seguiremos.

Trying to remember where I bought it, worth seeking out some more.

Found it at JS! Bought the last 3 bottles.

16/20 (88/100) Молодой и свежий аромат спелых чёрных ягод и гвоздики. Тельное с умеренной кислотностью и довольно интенсивными, бархатистыми по текстуре танинами. Насыщенное во вкусе. (06.04.2019) #vinnatur2019
