  Not as impressed as my previous bottle, but still a very solid wine. Dark fruit, herbs, meat and gravel. Slightly reductive at opening (as with most Canary wines) so make sure to give it some air.

  Revisited after some 12+ months. I don't think there has happened any significant development. The fruit is restrained, more spicy and tannic (bitter) than juicy. Big muscular acidity. I love the energy, which is more deep than powerful. Earthy tones on the palate, apple skin, light rustic. Tasty. Long and with sense of place. I like it very much.

  Granate cubierto con destellos violáceos. Nariz fresca, seductora, con una atractiva mineralidad, fresca expresión frutal, con una fruta roja crujiente -como se comenta en una nota previa-, ligeras notas florales y ciertos apuntes especiados. En boca entra bien, pasa fluido pero con materia, de nuevo reaparece el carácter mineral, bien de acidez, atractivos amargos, estructura media y bastante longitud.

  El vino de la comida en Baeza Rufete.
  
  Necesita aire como corresponde a esta añada en la bodega. Vegetal y fresco. Vulcanismo. Fruta roja crujiente. Algo desordenado en nariz pero con mucha personlidad.
  
  La boca es el mismo rollo. Muy bien balanceada entre amargor y dulzor. Nada de madera. Algo más corto de lo que me hubiera gustado.
  
  Creo que un par de horas de aire le hubieran sentado de domingo.
