  Tenth of twelve. Pop and poured. Once again a moulded cork. Antique gold colour. Lush tropical aromas, mainly pinnaple and passion fruit, plus candied lemon rind. More elegant than complex. Rich palate, pretty acid (following the vintage), long and savoury. Lovely evolution. Until the last drop. No rush for my last two bottles.
  
  Decima de doce. Abierta y escanciada. Una vez más corcho con moho. Del color del oro viejo. Exuberantes aromas tropicales, principalmente piña y maracuyá junto con monda de limón confitada. Más elegante que complejo. Un paladar abundante, bastante ácido (siguiendo a la añada), largo y sabroso. Bonita evolución. Hasta la última gota. Sin prisas para mis dos últimas botellas.

  Mes 3 bouteiles achetées ont toutes été victimes d'oxydation prématurée, après seulement 2 ans de garde...

  My last bottle from a case purchased on release, and sadly this was slightly corked.

  Moldy cork on the outside (pictured). Pale golden colour very clean and crystalline. On the nose there is a return to maturity with aromas of candied citrus, hawthorn flower, pastry oven or limestone even. Perfect effect on the palate with an rich texture and that necessary acidity to match food and providing a long finish. No doubt it is still a reference in this varietal.
  
  Corcho mohoso por la parte exterior (en la foto). Pálido color dorado muy limpio y cristalino. En nariz hay un retorno a la madurez con aromas a cítricos confiados, flor de espino, horno de pastelería o incluso mineral calizo. Perfecto efecto al paladar con una textura abundante y la acidez necesaria para pelearse con la comida y proporcionando un largo final. Sin duda sigue siendo una referencia en este varietal.

  Marvelous. Splendid fruits, honey, mineral(wet stone) and aplenty of flowers bursting out of glass upon first serving. As the glass goes down it offers refined aromas of toasted bread, cloves, apple/pear etc... and it plays seek and hide with all this. The texture on the palate is bright sunny, dry, yet very complex with the aromas above and for sure up lifting. The flavors are coming and going in waves and as much pleasure scenting it than savoring on the palate. Beautiful and so is life. Cheers,
