Tremendous showing, this bottle had a lovely floral nose, the palate was full of complex fruits, plum, cherry, currants, cassis, very long soft fruity finish. Based an this bottle (3 left) at its peak now, but should hold for several more years.9th bottle tasted since 2014!

Drinking really well. A complete wine. Reminds me a bit of a Don Melchor with perhaps a bit more eucalyptus and fruit.

Decanted via Vinturi. Nose of plum & currants. Black & blue fruit on the palate with tons of depth. Long finish with notes of spice & black licorice.

A big wine. Massive fruit and concentration. Some smoky notes. Probably at it peak right now.
