Weekly tasting group RWP #238: Wines with a poem (@ DJ): In the bouquet dark forest fruits, vanilla and lush sweetness. On the palate dark berries, a mouth full, good oak, herbs and spices, good acidity and still youthful tannin.

Weekly tasting group #194; Portugal plus a few Spanish pirates (@ WW): The bouquet shows lush dark berries and cherries, youthful and a bit lactic. Also oak and some sweet spiciness. On the palate juicy dark berries, cherries, chocolate, vanilla and other sweet spices. Good acidity and round but firm tannin. Improves with some extra air time. Overall a beautiful wine. Early maturity now and probably a bit better around 2017 or 2018. 88 – 89.

Weekly tasting group #119; A mixed set of red wines (@ BS): The bouquet is loaded with cherries, red berry fruits and a good dose of oak. Same on the palate. Also licorice, good fresh acidity and tannin with a firm bite. This wine is much too young. Wait until at least 2018. For now 88+

Weekly tasting group #144; A fully blind test. (@ The factory by MN): Consistent with previous note. Scored it one point less though.
