Complex with red fruit, dusty leather, and tobacco. Powerful with lots of tannin and acid, but in perfect balance. Maybe just a bit too much oak.

Really lovely mix of fully ripe berries and hints of caramel.

A more approachable wine to me, fresh and fruity, I like this style better than Viña Tondonia reserva red blend.

🔥🔥🔥 Needs minimum of 30 minutes to decant but oh man does it open up. So smooth and silky, red fruit (dusty cherries and dried cranberry), cigar box, raisins, wood and ash, cocoa, vanilla and a bit of coconut. Constantly evolving in the glass. Excellent! Wish I bought more.

Always amazing.
N: Tar, Cherries, smoky rubber, forest, balsam, chocolate , dirt, spice( cinnamon).
P: Vegetal wrapped in luscious roundness, if I were schooled in burgs, I’m sure I could find comparable.
Such a delightful mouthfeel, lush, acidic, tannic all in harmony. Resinous pine.
One of the very faves.
We once counted the fonts on a LdH bottle, got 12…any significance?
