  2/1/2023 - Zoltán Németi Likes this wine: 91 Points

  Dark, sunbaked fruit. Warm climate ripeness with a fresh, primary edge in the form of violets and blueberries. Dates and a touch of 99% dark chocolate, a detailed nose. Amazing purity, no oak in sight. Smooth and full on the palate, powerful but controlled and tight. Southern generosity with finesse. Firm, chewy tannins. A textbook monastrell but with more depth and there is something special about it. In a way it reminds me to a chateauneuf-du-pape. Outstanding wine. Ready now, drink to 2026.
