Popped and poured. Medium ruby core, pinkish rim. Ripe strawberries, floral perfume and liquorish up front, backed up by hints of medicine cabinet and spicy oak. Medium bodied, sweet fruit, impressive balance – just as good as I remember from our visits to Majorca. Although nowhere near the local price, it's value-wise still a decent buy here in Norway.

Spicy and silky, ripe black fruit, gentle and flowing, mineral core, juicy and fresh, medium body (a bit lighter than its 13.5% ABV would suggest, airy almost), good depth of flavour, soft but bright phenolics, good length. Nothing profound here, but a lovely wine with lots of individuality. A private lunch, Holborn Dining Room, London, UK.

Decanted for 1 hour. Opened up nicely. Plenty of dark fruits, lots of tannins and medium acid. All nice integrated. Great wine from Mallorca ;-). Enjoy now or next 3-5 years. OT

Spanish Mixed Bag, Summer of 2016; 7/2/2016-7/15/2016: A different taste world from most Spanish reds. Lighter bodied though still robust. Strawberry, red cherry fruit, a bit of liquorice. A first I felt this was a little dull, hollowed out - perhaps by carbonic maceration. But it became more lively after it had been opened for a while. Attractively peppery finish had me thinking Zweigelt. Nice, but not as impressed as I was with the 2012 last year.

Decent for clearance price of 12. Full body, a bit rough.

not comparable with the great 2009 vintage, more like a summer wine, light cherry, wood, tobaco, but quite.sharp in the back.

Predetermined Business Dinner (Restaurante Garcia de la Navarra - Madrid): Memories of monastrell on the nose and pretty impossible in the mouth. An absurd yet young Bullas-like wine.

Plush and more gentle than soft.
