    November 18, 2022 - I finally came to start to understand this wine a little better tonight. First of all—this needs 3-4 hours air in a wide-based decanter at this point. But more importantly, this is a wild, unusual wine whose challenging aspects fold softly to actually become defining strengths. Extra points for such a unique expression.

    June 5, 2022 - By the glass. Fresh, crisp, brittle even wine but retaining tension and length. In a blind taste could be mistaken for a newly released LdH for its finesse and features. Missing that nose a step forward but quite enjoyable right now. Can't be compared with El Ciruelo in my view.

    Por copas. Vino fresco, crujiente, quebradizo incluso pero conservando tensión y longitud. En una cata a ciegas podría ser confundido con un LdH recién salido al mercado por su finura y características. Falta que en nariz de un paso al frente pero bastante disfrutable en estos momentos. No puede ser comparado con El Ciruelo, en mi opinión.

    May 28, 2022 - Far better second night when the matchstick reduction airs out and the fresh, exciting fruit comes to the fore.
