June 8, 2018 - Past it's prime, no fruit, not interesting, we dumped it.
January 18, 2014 - Un vino de muy complejos sabores y olores. Es totalmente diferente a lo tradicional. Con un tono rubí que oculta los años que ha pasado en la botella. En boca tiene un final moderado con tonos de cerezas. Lo que sorprende es sus taninos son prácticamente imperceptibles. Por la característica de la bodega es un vino que vale la pena buscar y conservar. Salud!!
May 11, 2013 - A translucent wine that shows its age on the eye, it has a dark core with a red hued border that is starting to brick. Complex yet delicate on the nose boasting wild flowers, plums, blackberries, eucalyptus, and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate it unwinds in layers showing concentrated flavors of plums, blackberries, licorice, eucalyptus, and creamy vanilla. A mid bodied effort that passes on the palate seamlessly due to its silky texture, the finish is quite long lasting however the alcohol sticks out a bit on the end.
April 1, 2013 - a lovely bottle, opened with a number of friends that I met in 2004...but poorly matched with food (a spicy fish) or so I thought. Actually held up well with the fish, because of the peppery notes, and its little bit of lightness. Well balanced, fun nose, glad I bought it, great to drink with friends.
April 6, 2012 - Aromas of black plum, olives, tobacco and plenty of new oak spice. Similar on palate with some licorice and dried herb hints. Came across as fairly fat and modern to me, but easy to enjoy. According to Garagiste, this is from old vines made from nearly 100% Callet, a grape indigenous to the islands.
March 5, 2012 - wijn was niet helemaal a point, foute fles, leek niet helemaal fris, kan ook de stijl zijn, jammer maar helaas
November 1, 2011 - Deep cherry red with brick rim, dense tears with long and thick legs. It maintains a good fruit load, starts seducing with ripe raspberries and licorice aromas, gradually unfolding notes of black olives, coffee and graphite. The palate is fleshy and structured, with good acidity. It still retains a bit of astringency at the end. It's at a very good point, but personally I would venture to age it in bottle for another one or two years.
July 25, 2011 - Nose: Balsamic and toasted notes, raspberry, olives, graphite.
Palate: Spicy, a little alcoholic, great acidity, coffee, blackcurrant, mineral notes, smooth, medium bodied. Excellent ending.
A total surprise, far away from Mediterranean style wines (it's what I expected initially). On the nose reminds me of classic Riojas, but on the palate its spiciness and lightness are closer to classic French regions. Fully recommended.
June 26, 2009 - Fascinating wine. If I had tasted this blind, I would have immediately guessed Graves from a ripe year. Ripe, but balanced, smoky, and earthy, with a distinct herbal note. Long, building finish. I have no idea how this will age, but it's excellent right now. A fun wine to insert into a blind tasting.
March 19, 2009 - Colur: nice deep red with a bit of orange rim
Scent: Vanila,tobacco, spices and mixed deep dark fruits
Taste: some spiciness from the oak, herbs, currant.
