July 29, 2023 - Iberia Wimps July 2023 - Malhão de Estrela; 7/28/2023-7/30/2023 (La Trompette): Fully mature - wonderful deep nose, still some acidity there. Not sure though that I would have pegged this as Rioja - put me in mind of the recent South Africa dinner when the two Bordeaux Blends could have been Riojas, this was almost the opposite - if someone had told me this was a South African Bordeaux Blend from 1989 I could well have believed it.

July 28, 2023 - 2/2. No formal note but this bottle as a little tired for me - earthy, leathery and a touch dry. Drinkable, even interesting but not at all compelling. Drink up on this evidence.

May 10, 2020 - 1/2, decent cork (c70% lightly soaked), #22911.
Medium garnet core, pale garnet/brick rim. Developed, spicy nose, leather, quite rich, touch of brine (at times a touch too much), underlying red fruit. Medium bodied, spicy red fruit, hint of tobacco, soft tannins - quite silky, fresh/vibrant acidity, good length harmonious finish. Excellent, mature. -

July 29, 2013 - Note consistent with previous. Classic aromas of dried strawberry, leather, integrated American oak, sage, gamey lamb. Had aged gracefully and slowly, and could last a while longer I bet. Palate enters with still vibrant high acid and tannin typical of tempernillo. very nicely and classily done.
