Svårplacerat, Som en blandning mellan Bordeaux och Bourgogne i sin stil, fin frukt, smygande ek utan att bli överdriven, bra syra men kanske inte så komplex.

Un vino de muy complejos sabores y olores. Es totalmente diferente a lo tradicional. Con un tono rubí que oculta los años que ha pasado en la botella. En boca tiene un final moderado con tonos de cerezas. Lo que sorprende es sus taninos son prácticamente imperceptibles. Por la característica de la bodega es un vino que vale la pena buscar y conservar. Salud!!

A translucent wine that shows its age on the eye, it has a dark core with a red hued border that is starting to brick. Complex yet delicate on the nose boasting wild flowers, plums, blackberries, eucalyptus, and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate it unwinds in layers showing concentrated flavors of plums, blackberries, licorice, eucalyptus, and creamy vanilla. A mid bodied effort that passes on the palate seamlessly due to its silky texture, the finish is quite long lasting however …

a lovely bottle, opened with a number of friends that I met in 2004...but poorly matched with food (a spicy fish) or so I thought. Actually held up well with the fish, because of the peppery notes, and its little bit of lightness. Well balanced, fun nose, glad I bought it, great to drink with friends.

Smokey in its new oak. Very interesting stuff underneath but it does seem to me to be wrapped around its new oak. No, maybe I am wrong. Something more is maybe coming? Just opened, we shall see.

Light fresh wine. Not a great deal of complexity. There are some licorice and black currant. Short.

Aromas of black plum, olives, tobacco and plenty of new oak spice. Similar on palate with some licorice and dried herb hints. Came across as fairly fat and modern to me, but easy to enjoy. According to Garagiste, this is from old vines made from nearly 100% Callet, a grape indigenous to the islands.

Deep cherry red with brick rim, dense tears with long and thick legs. It maintains a good fruit load, starts seducing with ripe raspberries and licorice aromas, gradually unfolding notes of black olives, coffee and graphite. The palate is fleshy and structured, with good acidity. It still retains a bit of astringency at the end. It's at a very good point, but personally I would venture to age it in bottle for another one or two years.

Nose: Balsamic and toasted notes, raspberry, olives, graphite. Palate: Spicy, a little alcoholic, great acidity, coffee, blackcurrant, mineral notes, smooth, medium bodied. Excellent ending. A total surprise, far away from Mediterranean style wines (it's what I expected initially). On the nose reminds me of classic Riojas, but on the palate its spiciness and lightness are closer to classic French regions. Fully recommended.

Fascinating wine. If I had tasted this blind, I would have immediately guessed Graves from a ripe year. Ripe, but balanced, smoky, and earthy, with a distinct herbal note. Long, building finish. I have no idea how this will age, but it's excellent right now. A fun wine to insert into a blind tasting.

Black ripe fruits and tobacco in the bouquet. Well dosed oak. Black fruits in the taste as well. Some chocolate. All nicely integrated. An excellent harmonious wine.

Another great vintage for a remarkable wine. Dark inky blue. Unique nose of spices and dense fruit. Extraordinary dense concentration of fruit - power restrained and contained in elegant structure. Expressive, graceful. A wonderful wine.
