May 5, 2024 - Picked this up in Majorca 8 years ago and thought it about time I popped the cork .. Started with a bit of a vegetal funk but 3 hours into the drinking experience and this is drinking very nicely indeed , I’d say this is in its prime drinking window right now . Very good .. vanilla, spice and a hint of leather, not much fruit at the forefront but with a bit of coaxing I am getting some nice dark forest fruit.. getting better with every swish of my glass.. loving this now ! On opening I was rating this 88 - 6 hours in and I’m giving this a 92 lots of spice at the end, unfortunately still getting a little bit of greenery which has to take a point

March 3, 2023 - Dark red, almost opaque, slightly vegetal and woodsy, cedar-y and tobacco-y nose, yet still fresh. Medium-bodied, a hint of astringency on the finish that balances quite nicely with the woodsy notes. I was worried that this was too “mature” but fortunately nothing a bite of brebis couldn’t handle!
