Wow. As a person who has only taken wine tasting seriously for about 7 years, I have to say this bottle blew me away. It has matured into a fully bodied, delicious wine. It is way different than when I first purchased 4 bottles about 5 years ago from WTSO. I am happy to have had it from the very young to fully mature. If I could find more, I would buy it. The nose was wonderful, and the wine poured as the beautiful dark red color I remember. It's definitely a "special occasion" quality wine.

overoaked and extracted underripe green tannins. there's a lot of floral and sweet oak notes here, but it tends away from the fine structure of mencia from the hillsides

Very organic. Violets, Tobacco, Earth and smoke. Dark in color and smooth tannins. Probably needed the age it had.
