OMG, this wine rocked tonight, amazing bouquet, great fruit, smooth tannins, medium to full body, 13.9% abv, hit all cylinders, drank with chicken cous cous, a perfect pairing, not sure if the wine has matured or if this bottle is just great, I have not been overly impressed by some of my aged DDO wines but this was amazing, last bottle.

Medium ruby red with pink-orangey rim. Redcurrant, candied raspberry, orange blossom, wood, tobacco, spices, black pepper and earth. The acetone note still there, even thought more tertiary notes had developed since I last tasted 14 months ago. Medium bodied, medium-high acidity, medium tanning and medium-high alcohol. Long finish.

elegant style, medium tannins, medium acid, delicious perfectly balanced red fruit and a little bit of oak showing, adding depth
