  Eðalklúbbur, smakk #3 vor 2022 (Hlíðarás 10): Umhellt í 2 tíma. Frekar dökkur litur. Í nefi: Lím, leysiefni, sítrustónar (límóna), brauð og brennd eik. Eftir þyrlun þá komu líka fram: Anís, sedrusviður, rauð epli og lofnarblóm. Í munni: Anís, brennt síróp, epli. Fínt vín en það má líka vera það því það er ekki ódýrt eða um 33€.

  Bright purple red. The nose is ripe but structured, with a definite oak character dominating but not overwhelming the red/dark fruits. The Grenache character is stronger on the palate which has a purple lolly type flavor before quite grippy tannins kick in. This held up even if it didn’t necessarily show a lot more over several days, suggesting no rush to drink.

  Young, needed some air (and could use at least a year or two in bottle), deep, rich, hot year (?), higher in alcohol than 2016, still well balanced but not as refined at this time as the 2016. Look forward to seeing this in another year - 91+ at this point.

  Añada recién embotellada y presentada en la Barcelona Wine Week 2020.
  Cereza picota intenso, ribete violáceo bien vivo, capa media tirando a alta y fina lágrima tintada. Fragante nariz con unos aromas de fruta roja que recuerdan la cereza con licor, unos balsámicos muy frescos con palo de regaliz e hierbas del monte con romero fresco, matiz marcado de mineralidad fresca que se conjunta con un suave toque de hoja fresca de te verde de fondo. Notable entrada con una astringencia dulzona que deja entrever su fruta del bosque bien fresca y madura que recuerda la mermelada de grosellas negras, buen recorrido con ligero nervio y buena amplitud, intenso y suavemente carnoso, muy buena acidez, tostados por pulir y unos taninos bien presentes, pero sin desentonar en el conjunto, elegante, buena textura y notable persistencia. Final bien largo, postgusto de fruta del bosque y retronasal licoroso y mineral.
  Una añada más fina respecto a la 2016 que, sin embargo, es recomendable dejarla descansando un tiempo en botella.
  ¡Prometedor!

  Opulent dark fruits,little oak on the nose, very powerful. needs time to resolve. Pure fruits on the palate, balancing acidity is there...frames the alcohol well
