Helt ok Grenache (med en del Syrah) men inte mer. Massor med kummin, lite övermogna jordgubbar och aningar av lakrits. Lite klen frukt kanske för att jag ska vara riktigt nöjd. Viss beska och den typiska Grenache-hettan i slutet. 86p
Edit: Efter en vecka i kylen i halvfull flaska så är vinet riktigt bra! Balanserat, snygg frukt, integrerade syror och bra längd. Tydligen ett vin som behöver en hel del luft. 89p

In the nose red berries (cornelian cherries among others) and garrigues. Quite smooth mouthfeel. The wine is not that expressive on the palate and the finish is quite short and there is a slight bitterness, too. 14% alc.

Not a patch on the 09 I'm afraid. Seemed a tad thin and devoid of character. Surprised as I love this producer and have enjoyed most of the 11's so far.

Nose has some nice features with i.a. forest berries, some anis, smoked bbq. Very silky on the palate, not sure this is for the long haul though. And not as good as I would have thought given all the positive spin this year as well as previous vintages here in Sweden.

Much better day 2, went from 79 to 84p. Based on this bottle better leave them alone for at least 2 years.

Needs time in bottle to flesh out. Really like the style of this but just too young.
