October 17, 2018 - Delivered all 3 attributes I look for in a Monastrell a few years in the bottle: 1) Good fruit, even if softened by time; 2) rich mouth feel; and 3) Gentle tannins. A nice wine.

May 5, 2011 - I get a lot of dark berry on the palate, with just enough tannin to make it interesting. Excellent with flank steak. I vac-vin'ed it, and it was even better the second night. I would be a great QPR, but the first of my two bottles was definitely flawed and undrinkable, which cuts the ratio in half.
