October 5, 2012 - Failed bottle. It was good, in sweet wine terms, but in Monastrell standards this was ridiculously shy, almost a mute nose of crude petrol and black olives can.
Mellow tannins helped to drink it up.
Certainly needs some air, even considering is "only a sweet wine".
Botella fallida. En términos de vino dulce estaba bueno pero para una Monastrell era ridículamente tímida, con una nariz casi muda con petróleo en crudo y lata de aceitunas negras.
Los taninos melosos ayudaron a beberlo.
Ciertamente necesita algo de aire, incluso considerando que es solo un vino dulce. -

June 27, 2011 - Samarkanda restaurant, Madrid. Dark as hell. So good this one. Smells like my unforgattable Olivares but more carob bean is showed. Fantastic. Less sweet An excellent dessert wine.
En el Samarkanda de Atocha en Madrid. Oscuro como el infierno. Qué bueno este. Huele como mi inolvidable Olivares pero con más algarrobas. Fantástico. Menos dulce. Un vino de postre excelente.
