  By the glass. El Corte Inglés selection.
  A style that hasn’t convinced me in ten years. Before austere nose feels heavy, renouncing purity for a series of compotes and fruit in jam (cherries, raspberries mainly) with a menthol balsamic blow. Unexpected notes of anthracite as tertiary. On the palate it is a full-bodied wine, excessively juicy with a spicy aftertaste. Surely it has many followers. Good luck.
  
  Por copas. El Corte Inglés selección.
  Un estilo que lleva diez años sin convencerme. Antes que austero en nariz se siente pesado, renunciando a la pureza por una serie de compotas y fruta en mermelada (cerezas, frambuesas principalmente) con un golpe balsámico mentolado. Inesperadas notas a antracita como terciarias. Al paladar es un vino de cuerpo entero, excesivamente jugoso y con un regusto especiado. Seguro que tiene sus seguidores. Buena suerte.

  Light red color. Very young and tight on nose - didn't really open up 24 hours later either. Tart cherry, cranberry on nose. Medium body/ acidity / tannins on palate with a long finish. Fruit noticeably brighter on palate - on he red fruit spectrum on palate - enjoyed this. Didn't give a formal rating - enjoyed this but not a re-buy for me personally.

  Tasted at the winery.
  At last a bit of scent: mostly cherry, but spicy and attractive.
  Color is light.
  In taste: rose hip, raspberries, licorice.
  VERY drying tannins.
  No depth, no aftertaste - surely due to its youth, but at this point there is little fun in this.
  Needs a LOT of time.
  Today 86p, who knows where it will be in 5 / 10 years time.

  Medium ruby red in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & cranberries with floral overtones of roses & minerals, orange peel, spices, earthy, dried herbs, licorice & a hint of tar. Medium bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of red cherries, strawberries & tart cranberries with dried herbs, earthy, anise, minerals & spices. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well with decanting & airing but should develop further with additional aging.
