We paired against the 2004 R.Lopez. The majority of the participants in the rating chose the R.Lopez. However , the "g" opened over time with dried floral aromas and anise.

typical Toro: a lot of everything, big and bold with jammy fruit, vanilla, oak, figs, black fruit, milkchocolate, spices and licorice. Good length! Nice!

On opening, the nose was really interesting. Some definite barrel funk, pepper, spice, Cassis and cherry. After an hour or so the funk blew off and the fruit become more forward. An awesome palate, medium to full bodied, lots of black fruits. Amazingly long finish with plenty of tannin left to go another 5 years.
