February 28, 2015 - Floral sweet stewed strawberries and cherries , this is well developed and drinking like a Volnay. Supple attractive fruits.

October 27, 2013 - Another excellent bottle but quite different to the previous one and much less classic. The nose is very peppery, remarkably so in fact. A bit comes through in the mature flavour. Otherwise good mellow red fruits.

May 19, 2013 - A classic reserva and nicely mature but with enough fruit togo on for some time. Nose of mocha and orange peel. Add redcurrants too and that nails the flavour. Long and complex, beautifully integrated. Excellent wine.
