Gorgeous wine from old vines Mencia. Amazing texture on the palate and a long finish. Can drink now, but I will leave my other bottles for a few more years before checking in again. Drink now-2029.

Orange blossom aromas with orange peel, and carrots. Could get some blackberry flavours but were mostly dominated by the zingy orange liquor feels, and somewhat nutty, and even sherry-like. Nice, but quite a bizzare one hmm

Starting to drink well, but long life still ahead. Savoury, complex, red fruits, long.

Medium bodied. Uplifting and fresh. Forrestfruit on the palat. Very good. Reminds me of a good barbera.
