April 26, 2014 - Très bon.
Couleur légèrement évoluée tirant sur le grenat.
Nez de Cola, rose, griottes légèrement vanillé.
La bouche est assez complexe et riche. Tanins agréables et ce côté boisé élégant et retenu que les espagnols maîtrisent si bien rend le tout encore plus harmonieux. Finale un peu chaude (15% alc) et longueur moyenne.
L.accord avec un steak saignant n'a pas été très heureux. Je crois qu'un plat en sauce serait plus approprié. Coq au vin ou Bourguignon par exemple.
À boire d'ici les 5 prochaines années.1 person found this helpful Comment -

January 21, 2014 - Clear and bright, deep garnet colour and presence of legs. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium+ intensity aromas of cedar, tobacco, dark plums, dark cherries, game, and nail varnish remover. The wine is dry with a medium acidity, medium+ fine grained tannins, high alcohol, medium+ body and medium intensity flavours of dark plums, dark cherries, cedar, game and nail varnish remover. Long finish.
It is a very good quality wine with a good complexity provided by oak ageing and maturity notes, it shows a nice balance between alcohol and tannins and the finish is lingering, however it could have more fruit concentration. Can drink not, but it has enough structure to develop a bit more of complexity in the next 2-3 years, the moderate fruit being the limiting factor. -

November 5, 2013 - Хорошее вино, фруктовое, с хорошим сбалансированным послевкусием. Во вкусе вишня и смородина, аромат наполнен темными фруктами. Характерная испанская резкость и кислинка, что только его дополняет. 91-92 балла!
