  November 22, 2015 - A year has past since I last tried this vintage. Not much changed. A little smoother so I probably could have gone a couple more years before opening.

  October 23, 2014 - Fruity with hints of cherry. Bold tannins with a long warm finish.
  I have one more bottle so I think I will give it a couple more years to mellow.

  June 2, 2013 - I have had this in the cellar for a long time and it came up on the drinkability list as well passed it's best date of 2010. I am not a special fan of Spanish wine but it has improved in recent years. This was better than I thought it would be and I thought better than the average score. Quite light but had some friut coming through so a good mix with most foods.

  May 3, 2013 - This wine opened extremely well. Big flavor; cherries with a hint of tobacco. It is at its peak now. Don't cellar...enjoy.

  February 12, 2013 - Better than the last time. Opened up with some air. Had a fruity opening with mostly berries. Some smokiness. Served with quinoa paella with chicken and chorizo.
