Tim Atkin
"A 99/100 from James Suckling whose praise makes this a real treasure from the Uco Valley to have in your cellar!"
"Classy, layered nose showing minty blackberries, tart black cherries, cassis, cigars and minerals, then cocoa powder and a finely tuned balsamic flavor. A medium- to full-bodied red with wonderful freshness, juicy fruit and confidence on the palate. Incredibly long, concentrated and impeccable. Really well-balanced, complex and persistent. Genuine harmony and length." (James Suckling 2022)

Nose
Concentrated and complex, scents of black fruits such as blueberries and blackcurrants, with hints of fresh roses and violets, seductive and inviting.
Mouth
Characterful attack, fine-grained but firm tannins, structured, with flavours in line with those on the nose, prolonged freshness thanks to good acidity, long fruity and subtly peppery finish.
