  Tasted this at Tunglok Heen during a wine dinner with my wine mates. Theme of the evening: Wines from the Year of the Dragon.
  
  Dark purple with a brooding, solemn aura. Ripe red fruits with hints of vanilla, prunes, leather, and dark chocolate. What struck me about this wine is how approachable it is at 12 years of age and it is almost Bordeaux-like in many aspects.
  
  Made up of 77% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha, 8% Graciano, 5% Mazuelo. Went perfectly well with the Spanish Iberico Pork which we had.

  Much better than the 2013. Well balanced cassis fruit and vanilla. Moderate tannins and acidity, but good balance. Drink now and over the next 3 years.

  Vinmiddag med Marqués de Murrieta på Bocado (Laudrup Vin) (Bocado, Kristen Bernikows Gade 9, 1105 København): Mørkerød vin med koncentreret duft af røde bær, anis og vanilje. Fyldig smag af solbær, sød lakrids, eg og lidt tanniner, Karakter: 10,0
  
  80% Tempranillo, resten af druerne er Marcuello, Granache og Graciano.

  Soft tannins and in a perfect place. A full-bodied, luscious wine. On the palate, cassis, black cherry and plum. A cascade of dark fruits. Excellent.
