August 23, 2019 - Bottle 4,783. Medium body, deep ruby color. Starts with intense fruit forward aroma of ripe red and blue berries, about in one hour aeration complements by elegant pepper, tobacco and spicy oak notes. The palate is silky, juice like raspberry and cherry with long refreshing finish. Complex wine, excellent balance between wild berries acidity and soft tannins. Food friendly, tasted with sautéed vegetables and mushrooms. Open about one hour ahead. Serve 17º - 20º. Drink now and next six years.

June 14, 2017 - Color - red / deep black and opaque.
Nose - the classic smells of tempranillo, like his "good brothers" But not unusual.
In the mouth - medium / soft tannins (after being open for about two hours) I think the wine needs additional aging time.
I think he has a much greater potency than he does today, I will wait with the second bottle for at least a decade.1 person found this helpful Comment -
