One year since last tasting (04) this bottle is much better: fragant (licorice, sandalwood, redcurrants, crustaceans). Earthy. Dense and alcoholic in mouth. Modern style and younger comparing with 04. Yes, it is a bit over-extracted. Perfectly ready. Food? To me, its best friend is a good cigar. By the way, it seems to be a Merlot, CS and Grenache blend.
Un año desde la última cata, esta botella is mucho mejor: fragante (regaliz, sándalo, moras rojas, crustáceos). Terroso. Denso y alcohólico en boca. De estilo más moderno e incluso joven que su predecesor. Sí, está un poco sobre-extractado. Perfectamente listo. ¿Comida? Para mi, su mejor compañía es un buen cigarro.

Icon Wines Of Spain (WSET, London): 37% Merlot. Black core, purple rim. Blackberry fruitiness, high menthol, dusty dry tannins, savoury full and rich. Long fruity finish with light toasty oak. The different elements of this blend combine well to make for an intriguing wine.

Big burly wine with lots of tart fruit and a firm structure to hold it. Long finish with strong acidity that works well with the fruit.
