Given to me in 2007, during the Vino a Toda Vela event in Valencia, Spain. I had great experiences with Jumilla wines when in Spain, but this one was a little different. Gorgeous deep color, the nose is quite powerful, with black cherries, cherry pits, minerals and a tad of wood. The palate is plush with tannins that are still a little bit rough. Cooked fruits, spices and minerals dance in the glass. Nice wine, but it lacked a bit of typicity for me. Cellar for another year or 2.

Concentrated black, tarry fruits, some rasiny notes, with gritty tannins. Low acidity. Heavy and boozy, we couldn't manage to get through this over 3 days. Considering the hype this didn't seem like a particularly good showing.
