  Medium yellow colour. Ripe pear, ripe peach, ripe pineapple, oak spice, vanilla, and underlying minerality, with a creamy texture and very good length. Full-bodied, ripe, oaky, creamy, and mineral. The medium acidity only shows on the finish and lends some freshness. The wine showed well on day one, in particular after 30 minutes of aeration and paired with food, yet became bitter and a little tired by day two. Drink now and over the medium term.

  Hvite blomster, nøtter, stein på nese. Oljete I munn, nesten Voksaktig. Hvite blomster, nøtter, smør, bivoks, mineraler en mellomting mellom Nord-Rhone og hvit sentralburgund. Lang og dyp. Kunne hatt noe mere syre. 91

  Very old vine Verdejo (60% prephylloxera!), barrel aged and fermented.
  Coravin sample.
  Needs about 20-30 min in the glass to open up, and keeps going for quite some time after. Quite precise with good ageing potential.
  Primary fruit is beginning to subside. I'd be tempted to leave it till 2022-2026.
  One of my favourite Spanish whites, and one of the world's best value age-worthy whites.

  Stein, sitrus, hvite blomster, nøtter og noe smørtoner. Lang og balansert. Minner om sentralburgund!
