8/30/2022 - Bucken Likes this wine: 93 pointsA step up in quality from ‘Cincuenta y cinco’. Wonderfully smooth tannins and great intensity. Drinking beautifully now. |

2/22/2015 - Bucken Likes this wine: 92 pointsClassic pinot nose, floral notes, oak, wet wool and earthy aromas. Cool and concentrated dark red fruit. Solid length. Tannins are there, but only to add structure. This is drinking well now and should last 6-8 years. Very good alternative to Burgundy PN with a better QPR. |

12/11/2014 - Bucken wrote: 92 pointsOpened my first bottle 5 years ago and wrote "young tannins, will benifit from a few more years". Had two bottles recently, but both were flawed and undrinkable (acetone/nail polish remover on the nose). So I was glad to find my last remaining bottle was in good health. Tannins were completely integrated now, still plenty of fruit and good length. I believe the full potential to be achieved. Drink now or soon. My points are in reference to this wine style. |

3/18/2010 - Bucken wrote: 90 pointsClear and medium dark red. Light red edge. I always find it hard to pinpont the tastes and boquet on pinot noirs, but red fruits, raspberry and light red cherries (I think). Elegant and good length. Will buy more. |
