Nice and dry with a great wiff of leather and tobacco. Just a hint of ruby cherries. A very nice drying sensation on your tongue after each sip. — 10 years ago
The nose made me smile. This wine is floral reminds me of a spring day when all of flowers are in bloom and the sky is filled with wonder. I enjoy Torrentes but this one has to be one of my favorites until I taste another that evokes the same sensation. — 10 years ago

82% Grenache • 18% Mourvèdre • This wine was aged for 42 months in a combination of 1 year old hogsheads, and 600 and 800 liter demi-muid. The wine was bottled without fining or filtration. It attacks the palate with amazing fruit, complexity, structure and concentration. — 11 years ago
Handsome caramel brown color. Caramel toffey comes on the nose as well, softly, along with cobs of corn. Beautiful passage through the palate, very orderly and harmonious, with phenomenal complexity, all in a medium to full body. Leatherly sensation on the tongue. Sweet toasty flavor on the long finish. Oily sensation at the end. 93 pts. — 11 years ago
Tingly sensation on the tongue. Once it has had time to breathe, very unique and delicious. Has a slight wheat beer after taste! Very good 2nd day! ~$14 @ liquor mart, boulder, co. — 13 years ago
Loved it at Press in St Helena after Albariño and Pinot Noir. Strong but soft, my happy place when one begins to describe older characteristics in a wine without the wine becoming a dead piece of acid without elegance and all you are left with is a sharp sensation and a longing to have opened the wine 10 years ago. Anyhow- beautiful wine and definitely the time to drink it!! — 9 years ago
Amber color that actually looks like a topaz stone. Incredible nose. Figs, dates, caramel, whisky, vanilla toast, toffee. Dry #sherry with an almost acidic sensation and lots of bitters and a never-ending finish of coffee salt and blood oranges — 10 years ago
Medium garnet sweet nose of strawberries and cream caramel. Drinking incredibly well for a 2009. Makes me think this winery is more of a modern style Barolo. Has racy acidity and good fruit, tannins are pronounced with a tea bag sensation but balanced on the whole. Renews my faith. — 11 years ago

I agree with @Andrew Cooper it has intense almost chewable flavor and very refreshing and balanced acidity. There's a sensation of #minerality that when #blindtasting could almost lead you to think it's a Riesling from Alsace. 14 alcohol. #jurançon — 9 years ago
