Q4 2910 Wine Club - Aged Spaniards (The Apt): Wine #4: This wine prob showed age the most of the group of wines. It started a touch musty. Maybe a hint of meaty? It has some reddish notes but I hesitate to say fruit. A touch of the barnyard. A lot of that blew off with some time and the wine started to open a bit more. (3 pennies)

Plomme, te, markjordbær, appelsin. Veldig floral soya, mocca, nype-te, tobakk .Frisk og på topp nå muligens litt forbi. Helt moden. Rijoa ble røpet ved en feil. De fleste gjetta tidlig 80-talls, sent 70 talls. Jeg gjettet Contino 81 Crianza. Alex gjettet Cune som var riktig. Cune imperial Gran Reserva 1995. 95 utvikles veldig raskt i Rioja. Visstnok typisk Cune å utvikle seg raskt når det først åpner seg. 92

Quite restrained nose with dark red fruit, vanilla, slight woody earth and a hint of spices. The medium-bodied palate adds some more spices, medium acidity and light, mostly resolved tannins that do however pile up a bit. Long finish with vanilla, leather and tobacco, tapering towards acids. Really consistent from start to finish, and well in balance. In a good spot and very drinkable now, with some tertiary tones present but not yet completely in the general "old wine" department.
