Short single piece cork, came out whole, no sign of seepage, minimal saturation.
N: VA on opening, some clear notes of oxidation, old books, leather, chocolate milkshake, raspberry lindt chocolate. It all settles down after a while.
P: smooth, old oak, leather, good concentration, VA finish, slight heat. A singular, rustic, fruity wine with personality. Again there is oxidation on the palate, not oft putting to me.
100% old vine monastrell, destemmed Drink or hold to 2028, no upside anticipated 14% abv
