2011 vintage, Vega Sicilia portfolio tasting, Berry Bros. & Rudd, St James's. Elegant, fresh with dark fruits and a floral lift. A touch of wood/vanilla. Fresh and tight on the palate. Fine and grippy tannins. Some sweet black fruits, spices. A bit tight (still) but will develop well over the next 3 years and beyond. Medium bodied. — 12 years ago
Floral aromas of roses, red fruits, dry and balanced on the palate, something like a wine in between a Barbera and Pinot Noir. Medium bodied with good acids, clean finish. — 12 years ago

Even better than the Côte de Py. Tart cherry and plenty of acidity. A bit floral, and a diffuse funkiness that defines itself after a few minutes of opening: mushroom, meatiness, green vegetables. Just so much going on here. — 11 years ago
