Aperto e servito subito, naso immediatamente disponibile ed intenso, dolce di ciliegia nera, con sentori di vaniglia e di tostatura, ribes, prugna, spezie e sottofondo lievemente balsamico. Al palato tannino domato solo in parte, struttura ben concentrata e finale di media lunghezza. Ottimo Ribera del duero; con un profilo olfattivo fine, magari non di estrema eleganza, ma godibile e ben fatto.

Another bottle and very similar impressions: dark, extracted, full of black fruits, cocoa, nice wood, spices. Tasty palate very similar to nose - balanced, large, smooth, long finish. Very well made Duero...

Tasting again, 2.5 years after my first one (see my previous note) and still the same great impression! Very good wine, ready to drink and based on the progress during the last two years - will be in this great drinking window for long time.

Solid Ribera del Duero, rich dark tobacco and black cherry. Bright with long finish. Definitely could cellar longer.
