March 13, 2020 - Decanted one hour. I enjoyed it but my least favourite of the range. Possibly because it was the youngest and I should have left it a couple of years to develop as it was quite closed off. Will buy more but cellar.

October 30, 2019 - Dos Caballos da linha Grand Cru foi o que menos me agradou até agora (falta beber o Apalta).
Cor rubi intenso, reflexos violáceos, lágrimas viscosas que tingem a taça.
Aromas de cassis, ameixas pretas, madeira verde, caramelo, fundo herbáceo.
Macio no palato, com corpo de médio para encorpado, acidez adequada e taninos polidos. Intenso e persistente, com café e um herbáceo pronunciado no retrogosto, que cansou um pouco.
Mais tempo de adega e uma aeração generosa devem ajudar a amansar a pirazina dele.
