  Very good. Very sauve blend of mocha, black fruits and earthy beats.

  Weekly tasting group RWP #346; Some random wines (@ JdB): In the bouquet dark berries, sweet spices and chocolate. On the palate earth, autumn impressions, chocolate and coffee, but overall I am not sure if the wine is a 100% clean. For that reason; no score.

  Ett gammalt favoritvin. Kul att prova en äldre flaska. Väldigt bra och trevlig flaska

  Still young, tannic finish would mean a wait or big steak. But lovely ripe black currant fruit wth a touch of spice. Will be lovely fingers crossed

  Really nice wine , in a good spot. A great wine to drink with some age on it. It just mellows it all out nicely and really comes together in a decently balanced effort. But I've always enjoyed Mas La Plana ever since the 1996 vintage. A good solid wine.
  Colour is still dark, purple and red although you can see traces of it browning on the edges now.
  The nose is a tad challenged ... some forest floor/earthiness, dried berry fruit, ripe plums, with a touch of vanilla on the end.
  Full bodied, with a nice weighty mouthfeel, but not soupy. Smooth, dusty and drying grippy tannins. Good acidity to help keep the fruit in check from being overly heavy or sweet. Starts with blackberry and cassis flavours. Toasty oak spices, plums and a savouriness hits on the mid palate. Nice decent length to the finish ... more spices, and an herbal element.
  This could age further.
