  May 6, 2023 - Super ripe and bold berry and cherry fruit which dominates this wine. The fruit is lovely but I thought it came up a little short on complexity and balance. 90-91

  January 31, 2022 - 闻香是香草奶油，蛋糕，紫罗兰的香气，一些甜香料味，烘烤气息，明显的法桶，入口酸度明显，单宁紧致，颗粒细腻，成熟红果气息，香草巧克力，余味香草的甜美，满口红果香，久久不能散去。

  January 3, 2022 - 醒酒半小时，深紫红色，闻香有明显的奶油味，草莓，李子，捣碎的水果，紫罗兰的香气，胡椒一类的香料感，还有些橡木桶的烘烤气息，入口酸度高，单宁细腻如粉，酒液咸，虽然是甜美风格，依然能感受到清晰的骨架，口感丝滑，奶油质感，感觉像是在吃奶油蛋糕，草莓和李子一类的果香，泥土的气息和辛香料味，余味香气漂亮，是红果，茉莉花，香草和奶油冰激凌。这款酒橡木桶影响非常明显，同时又有着丰富的果香来填充，香气丰富，酒体饱满，有着比一般的歌海娜更好的酸度和结构。它没有Aquilon那么浓郁厚重，又比Veraton的复杂度明显更胜一筹，作为酒庄三款酒中兼具品质与宜饮的主打酒款当之无愧。

  February 19, 2021 - Vintage test of a favorite wine, Alto Moncayo Grande 2017 (bottle 1 of 6). 100% Garnacha, 18 months in French oak barrels, the typical Moncayo fruit, dark berries in the form of black currants, plums and blackberries, nicely balanced vanilla from the oak barrels, coffee and dark chocolate .... so heavenly good. A little high alcohol content reveals that this wine is young of course, will be so good within 2-3 years, this is happiness in bottle. Had this wine to Pulled Pork on Greek bread, super combo!
