Had the 2012 vintage. Similar notes to the Montsodi but a little more austere.

Medium ruby in color. Cherry, raspberry, oak, baking spice, smoke, and violet. Red cherry and tart cranberry on the palate. Moderate plus acidity and smooth tannins. Bitterness and almost green apple tartness on the finish that fades to lingering oak and hints of spice.

Coffee, mocha, cherry, black currant, black squid ink... What a complex nose! The palate is full bodied. Wide, long, strong acid backbone, black currant and cherry, strong tannins, grip, a finish with those fruits the anstringence of the tannins leaving way for a nice acid, fruity finish which is salivating somehow. The finish is quite magic here! Love this one.

Para perceber alguma complexidade, uma vez que passa por barrica, foram necessárias 2 horas no decanter.
