👃🏻 potencia media baja, vegetal, fruta roja poco madura, terroso 👄 buena entrada, ágil, fresco y con el tanino todavía presente, buen secante.

Capa media y densidad media, en nariz notas minerales, almizcle, monte bajo. En boca entrada fresca, paso tánico, le falta serenar un tanto, ágil y directo.

Tight and light. Slightly chalky, very mineral, this is a serious mencia!

At first I was in a bit of shock from the funny smell but the taste is nice with the terroir shining though.

Black berry, blood plum, black cherry, stewed strawberry, some dust, dried herbs and something a bit like rhubarb with some meaty jamón on the finish. Fresh acidity keeps it all in balance delivered on silky tannins. Plenty of interest here.
