Amazing depth and really crazy intensity, yet balanced with super-charged, dark fruit expression, lofty alcohol, espresso-tinged oak treatment. Coolest wine in Spain right now?? 97/100p.

This wine is to be drank with family! This wine is so BIG. It is HUGE!!! Very classic tempranillo pitch black, absolutely black, coffee-like dark, dense granate. Sumtuous nose of cherry scented shoe polish, incense, sandalwood, and rosewood, very fine and expressive. Very big development on the palate, but hugely driven by oak. Cherry scented tobacco, deep and dark, with huge tannins and slight banana peel nuance. A tempranillo on steroids, somewhat difficult to identify. Way too much make up. Decant this wine for a good long while before drinking. Syrupy and goopy. Finish stays a good long minute. 90 pts.

Intense notes of sweet spices like vanilla, cocoa powder, ripe red and black currants. Intense taste, big dark fruits and lots of spicy notes from oak. Big Wine, Modern style.
