It's 40/40 Tempranillo/Malbec and 10/10 CS/Touriga. Complex spices, dark fruits and raisins in the nose. A bit light/thin bodied and minimal structure. Not hitting in the same league as some of the outstanding vintages, go for the 2011 which has 10/10 Merlot/Syrah.

So... after the 2008, this is a challenge!! Like it in its own right, but doesn't have the depth nor the backbone of the 08. Flimsy tannins. Looking for a better substitute of the 08! Any suggestions?

Aging very well. Much rounder, fuller and approachable. Pleasantly surprised.

Easy drinking, good structure, could age a bit longer but not more than five more years i do not think.
