Belle interprétation de syrah de climat chaud. Pruneau et fruits noirs, avec une finale un peu viandeuse et poivrée tout de même. Texture un peu « soft » qui pourrait avoir un peu plus de tonus. Très facile à aimer. Les tannins sont très murs et doux.

Oh, this wine is nowhere near what it once was. The fruit is almost gone. Structure and acidity is there but the fruit to back it up has gone. Too bad...

Had my last bottle today. Still maintain that it has some Rhone wine features, more on the rich side. Chateauneuf du Pape? Smooth and long, dark berries, smoothed tannins. Had it with papet vaudois (which classically goes with white chasselas) and a rustic cheese plate. Too bad it was the last bottle!

Provient d'un vignoble dans la Manchuela (Centre Espagne), beaucoup de Soleil dans cette région! Une syrah bien poivrée et intense. Saveurs de fruits rouges et noirs. Mûres, bleuets. Beau tannins qui enrobe le tout, bonne acidité. Encore énormément de saveur et une bonne charpente pour durée encore quelques années. RQP **** Prochaine bouteille 2017-2020

Rhone smell, but a bit more oak. Dark fruits, but nicely lean and dry. Tannins already softened. Can still stay a few more years to develop some tertiary aromas. This will make it more complex.

Lourd, riche, alcooleux. Arômes de pruneaux séchées. Pas mon style.

Still fairly powerful, blackberry coco powder and some pepper. Good acidity and tannic grip. Quite enjoyable
