Warming, smooth and leathery 👍 — a year ago
This wine exhibits a unique elegance from its maturation for 12 months in Oak barrels. A suggestive cherry red color introduces a fine aromatic profile were hints of red fruits, vanilla, coconut, and toasted aromas perfectly merge. Ample and persistent on the palate, it matches very well with all sorts of aperitif's tapas, red meats, and cheese. " — 2 years ago

Clear, medium ruby in color; on the nose, it's clean with pronounced primary and secondary aromas of dried figs, black cherries, and cedar; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, full body, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of roasted tomatoes, strawberry sauce, black pepper, and wet gravel with a long finish. This wine is balanced and complex. Overall, I rate this wine as outstanding. It definitely benefited from being in the fridge overnight. — 4 days ago
