  A tapas and wine evening at one of the best spanish Restaurants at Hamburg: the owner of Meson Galicia, Juan Jose always allowes me to bring some of my own fine bottles without determine fee,.............., this time this 1959 GRI, a upper mid shoulder bottle, decanted, a bright, clear, brick-red colour, this fine intense fragrance, basket full of herbs and spices, in the foreground cinnamon, some hints of red fruits, on the palate a fine matured midweight body, still some supporting acidity, well structured, a little sweet perfumed bouquet, subtle melting, long+ aftertaste, on top now, but no reason to hurry up! Outstanding bottle!Still have some bottles in my cellar............, *****, 93- 95+?
