October 29, 2022 - Forest fruit, full in the mouth. Drank with mutton shank which was a great match. Medium tannin. Really unpacked well after 2 hours out of the bottle.

January 30, 2021 - Deep garnet red with a touch of brick on the edges. Mellow nose with a bit of truffles, earth, black currants and cherries. Medium to medium plus bodied with medium tannins (6/10). Dry palate with leather, cherries and crushed gravel. Medium plus finish. Drink till 2023.

August 19, 2020 - PnP. A little initial funk on the nose that went away with 20 minutes in the glass - after that gorgeous. Medium to full body with lots of dark fruit on nose and palate. Nice finish. Held up well and drinking beautifully.

December 4, 2018 - By the glass. Very irregular. Everything a bit vulgar and predictable. Combination of fruit and spices on the nose. Good length and little more. Without depth or charm. Regardless of my usual sympathies for this winemaker, 2006 has not been the year.
Por copas. Muy irregular. Todo un tanto vulgar y previsible. Combinación de fruta y especias en nariz. Buena longitud y poco más. Sin profundidad ni encanto. Independientemente de mis simpatías de siempre por este elaborador, 2006 no ha sido el año.
