  88 Color de madurez, inicio de dorado. Nariz alucinante, mieles, muuuy fragante, cáscara de naranja, licoroso. En boca es menos explosivo, más seco, con tostados y avellanas, y excesivo amargor.

  Its colour is pretty dark yellow with clear orange reflexes. The nose was very board, oxidative, fruitful (unfortunately quite cider’y or musty), orange’y, rather smoky and very unnerving. My impression of its taste was very much the same. Cider with cigarettes! On one hand it is rather mineral, salty, smoky and a bit board-sweet fruitful. On the other hand it is hard, violent, a bit too alcoholic (only 13,5%) and pretty oxidative (rather sherry like). After some hours I sensed slight changes, but no real improvement. The balance of this wine was the main disadvantage. Very demanding stuff!

  Gold/amber pommac but with lighter intensity.
  
  Clean developed/oxidised nose. Aromas of dried fruits, herbs, smoky, spicy.
  
  Dry, mineral, alcohol med high but sticks out a bit. Medium length, not heavy wine but more lighter but with medium full body. Medium/med high acidity. A little unbalanced maybe because of shipment/flight. Dried Fruits, Sand, Well defined structure. A structured wine. Oak touched but slightly loose but complementing the structure.
  
  Lovely but demanding! Done but will keep for god knows how long!
