  Oaky notes of Chocolate and a bit of Mocha lots of dark fruit; blackberry, black plum. Oaky notes are well integrated into the wine and not too dominant, so I would think French oak was used for maturation : Deep Ruby, Full bodied and medium high acidity and high in tannins. Very nice subtle fruit explosion in your mouth with a medium-long finish. Was petty astringent even after decanting so better have it with rich food. Can be a bit harsh to have it solo, even when aged for a decade.

  Viva la Espana moderna (Mövenpick retail store, Hamburg): Again that much wood, gradualy getting tired of this, quite delicious fruit, raspberry, red cassis, very concentrated midpalate, accomplished use of the casks, ending long and mineralic, may be a very good wine in some years, 15% ABV, but I think not for me, *(**-+?)
