Color of dark purple, almost inky, and a bit cloudy. Nose of plum, berry, fermented cabbage, vanilla, and some touch of sulfate note. Taste is quite acidic, with plummy and salty note hidden beneath, some tobacco leaves, marginal tannins, a tiny touch of zest, and some backbone of alcohol. Aftertaste is dominated by tobacco note and bittersweetness. It is actually a quite dense wine with above average structure. — 8 years ago

Really loving this vintage right now. Lots of fruit still on this one but still smooth. Subtle pepper on the finish. Fantastic wine for the price. — 9 years ago

This is just really well balanced. It has the acidity and tannins to run. I can't hit this with one description. Right balance. Right fruit, right must, right bite, slow oxing, will update in an hour. This one needs at least 2yrs to be epic. Save. Will be awesome in 3+. — 9 years ago

Just astonishing complexity here, with salty almond and defined white chalk flavors. Severe length, lightness and sincere width, this amazing wine showcase why Jérez' wines should be consumed by far too many, compared to present rates. — 10 years ago

Totally dig this firmly structured, broodingly mineral, moderately grained tannin wines with revitalizing acidity. Blackberries, black plums, fireplace cinders. Very cool! — 10 years ago

Regaliz, concentrado, no muy expresivo. Final algo secante, toques minerales. Nota ligetamente reductiva en boca. 14/20 — 12 years ago

Keith's annual fino dinner where I over drink carbon dated sherry. Dry start and finish with rockstar spunk. Very mineral. Special barrel at the end of the line with the oldest wine in the entire solera. — 9 years ago

constantly underestimated grape - here presented in perfect condition and showing culinary herbs, ridden saddle leather, autumn foliage and some fruital hints.
a quite adorable old lady!
certainly on a range with a. oberto, braida and vietti's barbera treatment skills, highlighted here the ability to age this low in tannin grape... — 10 years ago

Final night of the cruise.....night ten coming to a close so we decided to go with another Special Selection.

Deep and dark purplish ruby red, completely coats the glass. Plump and rich aromas on the nose with blueberries, vanilla, cinnamon, blackberries and even some purple flowers. Rounded and integrated heavy tannins (7/10) and medium plus to full bodied. Love the blue and black fruits on the palate of this wine. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2032. — 8 years ago

Best bottle to drink on the dock while fishing for fresh Dungeness crab. Super fizzy, dry, and strawberries that remind of summer sun. Love. — 8 years ago
