Nose like old tea, sweet decay, blood, rust, leaves. Palate has some oxidation but also some pleasant acidity, sour red cherry, tealike. Enjoyable, moreso with dinner.

Cork fell apart in pieces, but the wine was fine. In fact, fine is an understatement - a mature treasure Bright, balanced and silky, this Crianza seriously over-delivers in every department, especially given its price. Delicious, with some fruit and herbs still lingering around, but a strong showing of more mature flavors. Beautiful, delicate and effortlessly elegant, this is a fantastic surprise - what a well cared for mature wine is all about.

Enjoyable on opening but quickly collapsed into a decayed, oxidized compost heap.

Cork collapsed into the bottle. Very dark, murky color, totally maderised.

Classic nose. Quite pinched on the palate though. Very high acidity and seemed out of balance. Still alive though.
