  PnP. Red and dark berries, earthy notes, fresh with medium+ body and long finish, rather elegant style. Still very young, but already very good with food, was a perfect with red deer. Drink now or within the next 6 to 8 years.

  100% Mencia. In the valleys but on the mountains I am being told. THis property has the vines on the top part of the valley. 80 year old vines. A bit more rounded and full on the palate. Raspberry and rounded. 93 Suckling. At this price everything else is at the bottom but he is at the top. He is famous in europe apparently for teaching in Europe on how to manage vineyards in an organic way. Spain's answer to red burgundy. And apparently a crazy guy.
