April 27, 2018 - Not much to add from earlier judgement. The wine has ripened a bit and we would say peaking now. Aftertaste deeper, slightly drier. Minerality is altogether more pronounced. Unmistakenly Priorat!

November 5, 2016 - Deep blackish red, edges with some blue still. Fairly large bq w plenty fruit, first red then black, touch of raspberry, minerals, stone dust, tobacco. Tannins have ripened, good acidity, nice ripe dark fruit. Good balance. Quite long aftertaste w herbs, some dried fruit, some alcohol.
Almost elegant, despite 15% alcohol. Nowhere near its end of life.1 person found this helpful Comment -

October 7, 2016 - Seis años de espera para un vino difícil de encontrar pero que la estancia en botella le sienta de maravilla.
Color rojo granatoso bien oscuro, ribete granatoso y capa bien alta, gruesa lágrima bien tintada y abundante poso al final de la botella. En nariz presenta unos elegantes aromas de fruta negra madura (grosellas y moras carnosas), los tostados de la barrica se muestran aún rugosos pero mejor integrados que anteriores ocasiones, hierbas frescas del monte y suave mineralidad que aporta mucho frescor y complejidad al conjunto, especias en granos, mentolados secos, licor de grosella y toques de tierra fresca de fondo. Notable entrada en boca con una marcada astringencia que le confiere garra, gran recorrido bien carnoso y con carácter, buena acidez aunque a ratos cierta calidez, notable amplitud y de medio volumen, fruta negra madura muy sabrosa, los tostados flotan por encima la fruta y los taninos dan profundidad al conjunto mostrándose firmes y nobles, frescos balsámicos que aligeran su carnosidad, mentolados frescos y notable persistencia. Final bien largo, postgusto de fruta negra madura y retronasal mineral.
¡Cómo mejora con el tiempo!

September 9, 2014 - Showing much more than last time.
This is a rich and sunny Grenache-blend that is becoming more and more likeable. Still young, but tonight showed clear signs of greatness to come.
The Grenache fruit dominates, so not for wife.
Five more years in the cellar ought to make this wine grand. -

February 6, 2014 - Purple flowers and cedar on the nose, dark, brooding palate with black and blue fruits, rich mouthfeel and a touch of baking spice on the finish.
