One of my favorite Spanish wines. No question. This is the best year I've had, 2001, although I've had the 04's through 09's. Thanks to Wine-Searcher for helping find a good price in the U.S. — 10 years ago

Not quite as sweet as many PXs, which pleased me greatly! Had this to cap off a great dinner at La Carbona, less than half a mile from the Hidalgo location in Jerez. Fun times! — 11 years ago

Excellent wine ... thoroughly enjoyed. Not the best year from Leoville, and would be even better 10 years from now. — 10 years ago

Great reco from Gary Westby at K and L Wines, via Bob Ornstein. Can't ask for more from a $35 bottle, which is what a great champagne should cost... — 10 years ago
