February 16, 2024 - Fantastic wine!
All levers are in the [on] position. Acidity, intensity, elegance, complexity and length. Blindly, I probably would have mistaken it for a cool climate Syrah of dignity. The aromatics move towards Australia's syrah wines, although gravitating more towards spearmint than anise.
Still very young.
Impressive wine with a higher score in the future. -

March 11, 2023 - Dark purple colour. Distinct taste of black fruits (blackberries, blueberries) with hints of smoke and wood. Medium a little bit coarse tannins. Full body (15% alc.).

September 17, 2022 - 100% Tempranillo, 70% is on French oak and 30% on American oak. An absolutely wonderful fruit in the form of blackberries, black currants, sour raspberries. Fine minerality, tobacco and autumn leaves. The acidity and tannins are in harmony, it is impossible to say that this wine is 14 years old, incredibly viral and resilient. This vintage will be even better in 5 - 10 years, but are absolutely wonderful to drink right now. Needs about 1 hour in a carafe.

August 28, 2022 - Big wine, needs 2-3 hours of air. Intense blackcurrant and spice. Some fresh herb. Velvety tannins, well integrated. Just enough acidity to balance the intensity.
Overall really nice wine. Will revisit in a year or two.
