May 7, 2023 - 深宝石红色，闻香有轻微brett的味道，黑果，木质香气，法桶的香料感，入口酸度中等，单宁紧涩，有些糊嘴，颗粒细腻，酒液甜美，草药混合着黑果的香气，风格很优雅，中等酒体，果甜的口感，后段有点回苦，集中度欠缺一些，可能有些醒过头。

October 22, 2022 - Slightly disappointed, had expected more. A very good glass nevertheless, just a bit less development than expected; sweet tabacco, dark cherries, vanille, licorice, black currant, cooked blackberry, smokiness. Medium bodied, soft medium tannins, medium+ acidity and long finish

December 5, 2020 - Appalling bouquet with dark cherry, cassis, liquorice and vanilla. Medium-bodied, medium-high alcohol, integrated tannins, medium acidity, dry. On the palate, lots of ripe cherry, balanced and juicy and a long finish. High quality, drinking very well at the moment.

November 4, 2020 - Lots of cassis and blue fruits with vanilla and light oak at first. Punchy acidity, medium tannins that weave in and out on the palate...this wine is lithe and fun. Secondary notes of mulberry and other interesting, less common red and black fruits. Tertiary hints of bramble and blackberry, though this Tempranillo is much more refined and not a briar patch like some I've had. Evolves in the glass, needs at least 15-20 minutes to start opening up, though an hour might be ideal right now.
