I’ve enjoyed this wine before, it’s nice balance between a dry and yet fruit forward wine. Somehow was not showing so well today: definitely some peach and melon but no structure, felt like a cheap rose. Still have a few bottles, let’s see if this is a one off.

Still one of the most fantastic Spanish whites. The oak, the vanilla the peach keeping the character of this wine. Wondering if it’s starting to reach its awkward years though.

This wine is still alive and well. Surprising that tannins are still somewhat present. One can definitely feel the alcohol. Once opened what dominates are the smoke and pencil shavings scents with some dark fruit on top. A real pleasure!
