They seem to be putting all the big guns at the end of the tasting. Almost too intense to smell. Truckloads of rich “brown” flavors… nutmeg, chocolate, coffee, caramel, truffles, sherry, etc. A wine so unctuous, that it’s almost hard to swallow it all. After several minutes, I could slurp my tongue between my gums and lips… and I could still taste the wine. A totally shocking wine experience. A WOW wine if there ever was one. |

Interesting scents of cedar, earl grey tea, nut-skin and some leafy-like aromas. A real pit bull of a grip and that beautiful bitterness that I often associate with Terrantez. Although exhibiting a nice array of flavors, the palate impact paled in comparison to the previous Buals. VERY GOOD. |
