Drinking beautifully. Dried blackberry, crushed stone, vanilla and sage. Medium tannins. A real winner!

Great vintage…consistent producer…showing perfectly at the moment. Slight sediment, but pure, sweet, Tempranillo fruit. Impressive balance; long sexy finish; perfect foil for NY steakhouse filet and corn soufflé brûlée. Labor Day, center court, near perfection.

Oh well one of the best in my opinion. It is ripe but not over ripe, the body is med to full and it has a good acidity. The oak is in the right place. The fruit has nice complexity and a little sweetness. Very classic style and I love it a lot.
