  in '21 I wrote 'A massive monster' and that was not the main impression of this bottle; still lots of dark fruit, specially fat cherries, but here there was more elegance combined with the very concentrated inner core.
  Very well balanced, smooth tannins and gentle bitters; still full of life.

  Decanted 3 hours. This has evolved to the next phase. Next bottle will get less air. Some fruit, however not much left. Smooth. Long finish.

  PnP with 10 minute wait in glass. Equally good on night 2 after air pumped. Recent tasting notes are spot on. Nothing more to add other than it’s in a sweet spot now, lots of life left but no reason to wait.

  Double decanted, contained little sediment, at its best 4 hours after opening. Some black berries are left upon opening, the very pleasant balanced secondary and tertiary flavours, all tannins are well integrated, very smooth and silky, intens and long after flavours.

  Secundair notes. Reminds me of Pegau C9dP. P&P. Drinking very well at this stage. Fully mature. Nice garrique, Llicorella, some sweetness. Dried herbs, Very nice clean wine.
