Sight: Completely opaque, blood red, slight tawny. On nose: fruit forward, tobacco. On mouth: very smooth, full bodied, was difficult to taste fruits but strong oak and earthy presence. Might not have been at correct temperature. — a day ago

90% Tempranillo; 10% Graciano. Red fruited perfume, earthy with medium plus intensity. Palate at 21 years is developed, balanced and soft with fully integrated tannins. Medium weight with declining strength to its inner core. Not near as good on the 2nd night. This aged overnight and finishes a little sour. I was going to give it 94 points but will now give 90 points. — 25 days ago

Shows notes of blackberry, violet, wild herbs, and spice, wrapped in a chalky, structured frame. Elegant, savory, and age-worthy. Ethereal expression of the varietal and terroir. — 21 days ago

9.1

Primarily Tempranillo with some Graciano and Mazuelo blended in. Deep ruby color with a garnet rim. Intense black fruit aromas, leather and baking spices. Flavors of blackberry, black plum, baker’s chocolate, cinnamon and tobacco. Nice cedar, dill and vanilla notes on the long and lasting finish. Smooth and very well rounded tannins. Great balance of oak, acidity and alcohol. Full bodied. Fresh, well structured and complex. — 20 days ago

See my photo on iPhone. Had with Marc’s folks in Leiden. So unique notes with Tempranillo although to me a bit too fruity on the front. But all loved, including W&S, and I agree pleasant finish with minimal tannins. — 2 days ago
