From a perfect bottle (private collection at Rekondo) this was glorious with no sign of fade. Oak initially dominates with subtle sweet vanilla from US oak (much less than similar aged Unicos) and then a lovely mix of earth, cranberry and raspberry. Actual fruit! Very much alive, elegant and actually improved over 2hrs in glasses. 94pts technically but the experience was a few notches higher

Good deep red color. Great acidity. Earth, dill, cedar, herbs, moderate spice. Still vibrant and held up over 2-3 hours without fading. A real treat.
