Spearmint dominates the rooty-herbal nose. Light weight, less viscous than most fernet. Get a big black tea note on the palate. — 10 years ago
Eucalyptus, prickly pear and a balsamic toast atop peppermint oil finishes out the pungent microcosm. Tight near-ripe raspberry, tannic cranberry and red clay with basil oil tend to the center. There is cola-cherry-syrup- bourbon root liqueur happening that makes it darken toward the end, almost Coke and Fernet branca, but also a very green, leafy remnant full of iron. The finale is pomegranate, and it is a chewy answer to the pointed questions in the middle. Great vintage, fabulous wine. — 10 years ago

Holy Mother of Jerez Son of a Biscuit Eating Motherless Goat!! This is so unique, weird, delicious. Could literally sip just enough to wet the lips all day long. This makes aged fernet seem worthless and sterile. @steviestacionis @nopasf — 13 years ago
Full, herbal, ripe and oaky on the nose, obviously still young but more than ready to play. Odors of licorice and Fernet or Chartreuse come through. Thank goodness this has been open since yesterday, it almost certainly needed it. On the palate, bright cassis, wild strawberry and herbal liquor comes through with jasmine and finely structured tannins. Yumyumyum. — 9 years ago

A little dusty on those nose with soil and cherry. Awesome full-yet-subtle tannins. Long finish of red berries. — 10 years ago
Bitter on the start somewhere between a cynar and fernet, the nose switches from herbal to strong notes of honey, slightly sweet mid-palate, herbal bitter finish — 10 years ago

Very pale ruby. Pungent red fruit, spice cake, Christmas pudding aromas. A touch of CO2 on the palate and plenty of firm acidity. Paired well high a highly seasoned mustard vinaigrette salad. Even better with a handful of pretzels later. When it shows cola nut and Fernet aromas. Very interesting. — 11 years ago
