September 4, 2023 - This wine is well balanced and delicious! Ripe red raspberries and leather on the nose. Cherry pie on the palate with a hint of anise and leather.

April 7, 2023 - My last bottle of six has enough issues that I'll call it flawed rather than over-the-hill. My prior two ratings had been 95. This one, I'd give low 80s - drinkable, but a bit sour and definitely imbalanced with either premature tertiary flavors or some oxidation. Go by my and others' prior notes and drink now on the assumption this is at peak. Even had this bottle been like my last, I'd propose that Alto Moncayo is not like great CdP, which I await until 10+ years. I prefer AM at peak primary phase, 5-10 years after release.

December 25, 2022 - Nach dem exzellenten Marques de Grinon musste etwas Besonderes her. Und dies war er: Der Alto Moncayo ist ein Weltklasse-Wein zu einem Spottpreis. Fruchtbetont Nase, tief und dicht. Im Mund sagenhaft komplex mit Aromen von Pflaumen, Brombeeren und schwarzen Früchten. Hinzu kommen Noten von schwarzer Bitterschokolade und Pfeffer. Weiche, elegante Tannine. Enorm intensiv. Der Alkohol (16%!) ist wunderbar eingebunden und keineswegs aufdringlich. Sehr langer Abgang. Wenn man sieht, was man zu diesem Preis (knapp 40€) in Bordeaux bekommt - von Burgund ganz zu schweigen -, dann ist solch ein Wein geradezu geschenkt. Ganz großes Kino!
