This is a very interesting wine. Color has started to go golden and the weight seems to be building. Tastes like a Chenin Marsanne cross... waxy and rich but shot through with Meyer lemon juice. Kinda love it!

うきうきセール2197円で購入したスペイン赤古酒、2003年物。開梱したら何度も痛い目にあった金賞ラベルが付いていたのでヘコんでいたのですが、実はすごい子だった!ガーネット色としなやかなタンニンは古酒そのもの。それでいてしっかりと凝縮した果実味、失われていない膨よかな香りも素晴らしい。樽熟によるバニラ香も堪りません。5千円はする実力だなあ。

First experience with the Monastrell grape. Some very nice bouquet and color characteristics. Heavy but very smooth mouth feel. Great body. Good everyday wine. — 4 years ago
Sofisticated nose of red and dark small berries and oak (prominent but not over the top), mineral notes and some chocolate; medium acids and tannins, but mouth filling from beginning to end and what remains after swallowing is fruit basket and pastries. — 6 years ago
