  Popped and poured. Ten years on but showing no age excepting this antique gold colour. On the nose showed that typicalbyet delicious aromas of meringue, candied lemons and limestone among many others like dried herbs or citrus curd. In the mouth offered a firm yet oiled texture, mature lime acidity and a decent length with a bitter finish. For a lesser vintage like this, at its best. Better if warmer even.
  
  Descorchado y directamente vertido. Diez años ya pero sin mostrar su edad a excepción de este color del oro antiguo. En nariz se evidenció que los típicos aromas son los deliciosos del merengue, limones confitados y piedra caliza entre muchos otros como hierbas secas o cuajada de cítricos. En boca ofrecía una textura firme pero aceitada, la acidez de una lima madura y una longitud decente para un final amargo. Para una cosecha menor como esta, en su mejor momento. Mejor incluso si se calienta un poquito.

  Amber, medium(+) intensity. Mature nose, high intensity. Quince, wool, minerality, bitterness. A slight sweetness on the palate, high crescendo acidity, medium body, very good length. Complexity in flavours with accentuated lager beer, pineapple, wool, quince and some bitterness in the finish. Finely textured with nice phenolic grip. Mature yes, but still fresh without oxidation.

  Just passed the top and slightly oxidized with a fino-like complexity. Gold colour. Ripe winter apples, autumn leaves, herbs. Energetic, very good acid, long and complex. Probably close to 90p a year ago.

  Great wine with pronounced chalkiness, dry with citrus galore and excellent length. Classic.
