2006 vintage. In its youth, the lofty oak treatment shaded the fruit, but not anymore. Integrated toasty oak intermingles with luxury leather, ripe yet fresh fruit (just entering its maturity phase), slatey minerality and hints of spice. Despite all of the above, it behaves sort of one dimensional.

Awesome powerful wine. Inky dark, smokey, spice, dark berries, candid violets. Monster tannin.

If you're unfamiliar with the term "beast-mode", you will likely find a picture of this bottle of wine next to its definition. This wine is a monster. 15% alcohol, and as deep and complex as you would expect. Juan Gil family have really nailed it with this one.

Big inky wine. Balanced and well made but something was lacking for me with this one.
