@ Abbaye Sylva Plana. Delicious white Faugères. Smokey yet fresh and mineral. — 5 years ago
Mas la Plana is my favourite Cab from Spain 🇪🇸 grown in Penedès. Having had my last 05 last year which was superb I was keen to see if this 30 year old 89 @ €63 would still be alive & to my surprise it is 😁 I still prefer these with 7-12 years of age 😉

This is second time to taste same vintage one. It has been more than one year. Much more good with vintage taste. And aroma is quite good, sweet! It surpassed young Mas La Plana. @1550, Eva - XSHERATON, 180317-180322 — 7 years ago
