Amazing! Light tannens and perfect dryness. — 4 years ago
Excellent bouquet of dark fruit, dump earth. Good complexity and structure with fine tannins, and good aging potential. Lovely wine. — 5 years ago
With scallops, octopus, crab, and later short ribs at an Italian restaurant. The glue has subsided, not rubbery, some fruit is coming out. But not special.
21 minutes later: The candied bacon came out, and it compliments the short rib very well. — 3 months ago
Maybe too young to tell but I really enjoyed this. Although is has a somewhat muted nose, it was reminiscent of cling peaches and a dash of iodine. The flavors are unapologetic. Bold fruit, tomato leaf, cured meat and integrated tannin. Long finish — 5 months ago
Dense, rich, ripe than other arpepe range. — 4 years ago
I was told this bottle is scarcely available as only about 1,000 cases produced each vintage and most of them stay in Spain.
Rich and ultra smooth, this somewhat reminds me of Clio. Coconut and Creme de Cassis overwhelmed initially but eventually settled down. Unapologetically hedonistic, it’s nevertheless delicious and possesses great substance. Would love to try one with some bottle age, but the first vintage release was 2014.

Medium ruby in color; plums, bell peppers, and paprika on the nose; medium acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like raspberries, jalapeño, and wet slate with a long finish. It's a really interesting flavor. It's not for everyone, but well made. I like it. — 5 days ago
