Community Tasting Notes 3

  • Neecies Does not like this wine: 85 points

    November 12, 2013 - Caramel and oak, loose and simple. No trace at this point of whatever it had that garnered 91 Tanzer points. Drink up if you have 'em.

    March 13, 2010 - Slow to open wine that unfolded with blackberry dark fruit. Very dry but little tannin after it opened up in about 15 minutes. I reached its peak after 75 minutes and started to decline at about 2 hours. I had this at a Tapas bar in Barcelona. (The label is much more palatable here than the export version.) Note-restaurant wine prices in Spain are not much higher than retail prices in the U.S. as custom is not not mark-up wine like in the U.S. After a week of drinking wine in Spain, France and Italy, the money you save can pay for your flight!!
