Still very full of flavor, and the oak is coming on strong. Not so much fruit forward anymore, what we have now is a lot of "road tar" "hot asphalt" aromas. I love that! Full bodied, and even some nice tannins there, with that Priorat minerality as well. Drink now though. This won't hold at this level much longer.

Opaque black-red, graphite and balsam nose, medium-bodied, and (pleasantly) still sufficiently fruity to be well integrated. A tad muddy, although not enough to detract from an enjoyable and very hearty bottle. Lots of sludge at the end. Not quite the evel suggested by a WA review a number of years ago, but quite good all the same.

Still deep in color with black cherries and blueberries in the nose and flavor. Rich wine, well balanced with nice complexity and a long finish.
