  February 15, 2023 - This bottle suggests that this is at its peak, which is a shame given this was the last of the case. Textbook Ribera, with good acidity and dark fruit fading to graphite finish. Tannins almost fully resolved. Likely plateau for next year or two but no reason to hold off.

  July 16, 2019 - Not quite as impressive as last bottle, overshadowed slightly in a line-up that included grander wines. Still very enjoyable, just lacking a little backbone.

  June 29, 2019 - Opened up nicely after an hour decanted. Not as "big" as some of the other leading Riberas, but same character and structure. Suggestion of more to come but already delicious- drink or hold.

  April 21, 2019 - Smooth, rich & warm dark cherry, still quite primary. Better on 2nd day, so long decant advisable.
