  Still violet red, some sediment. Dark berries, dusty, garrique on nose. Palate still on the firm end of the spectrum, but in balance with berry-driven fruit expression. No hurry, but further development not expected.

  Regular dinner group (@ PZ): Yoghurt and cherry candy flavors in the bouquet, some dark berries as well. On the palate lactic as well, dark forest fruits, some smoke and oak, good acidity and fairly supple tannin. In this stage not overly interesting. It is still youthful, so maybe with another 3+ years of ageing it will show more complexity and finesse. Not sure. 87+?

  4/21/2014 - Harley1199 Does not like this wine:

  BYO to restaurant La Cabra in Madrid pairing a salt and peppered steak tartar and a cheese table.
  Rustic, earthy, dusty plums on the nose
  Palate is tannic without any trace of elegance or distinction.
  Sincerely I don't need this.
  
  Llevada al restaurante La Cabra en Madrid para acompañar un detalles tartar salpimentado y una tabla de quesos.
  En nariz es rústica, terrosa, a ciruelas polvorientas.
  En boca es tánica sin trazos no de elegancia ni de distinción.
  Sinceramente no necesito esto.

  Decanted for 30 minutes before tasting. Purple core, pink rim. On the nose; primary red fruit, garrigue, dry soil, spicy oak and a whiff of alcohol. On the palate; cool fruit, medium bodied – not really showing too much. Quite a surprise – I was expecting something a lot more powerful. A bit disappointing, but should still be decent accompanying lighter meat dishes.

  PnP. Flavor profile and 'dustiness' similar to last year's bottle. This time the wine was more open, especially on the palate. Entry had open expressive fruit framed by acidity which followed to finish. Did not feel tight at all, but now reveals a little 'emptiness' midpalate which recovers by the finish. Pleasant, refreshing and quite a good accompaniment for dinner.
