Pas de changement avec la première dégustation avec une touche d'écurie en prime. 2½**

Moins bon que le 2020. Simple, un peu mince, des herbes et des fruits rouges.

Dos botellas como piratas en una cata de Burdeos. Una defectuosa, con acetona, sin nota, la otra muy bien. En nariz con madera antigua, levemente sucia pero agradable, en boca excelente, de volumen medio-alto y taninos muy finos y nobles.

Color evolucionado, pero brillante y limpio. Similar al Don Luis 1988. Madera noble, caja de puros, muebles, levemente recinoso. Algo de fruto, pero sin protagonismos. Volumen medio alto, también presencia de madera, buena acidez, taninos algo más gruesos que en el Don Luis 1988. Pareciera tener un poco más de alcohol, pero la etiqueta también indica 12. En resumen, los dos vinos bastante similares, el 1989 un poco más de volumen, juventud y madera. 91

Surprenant pour le prix. Boisé bien intégré, moka, cassis , cerise, pruneaux confits. Fin et long en bouche.

Needs to breathe for a while. Lots of berry, bit of tobacco, nice finish. Better with a meal than by itself.

89-90(+?)pts. Very good QPR here - true, it still is a bit young and has harsh tannins at the end. The oak treatment has also been a little too much here, but otherwise this wine delivers all the varietal notes of Cab Sauv for a really good price. Buy.

86-89 range. Good QPR @ $14. Better than many Cali Cabs at twice price. Needs 1 hr of air, so open early. Tastes real. Aging potential 5-10yrs. Nose: strong cassis, and some drying notes: leather or cigar box. Long and drying on palate. 30-45 sec finish. Lacks the roundness or complexity of a Bordeaux blend.

14% alcohol, 4,7 g/l acidity. Tasted blind in VV. Dense and almost fully opaque black cherry color with a youthful blue hue. The nose feels somewhat reticent and lacking focus, exhibiting vague, ripe aromas of sweet dark fruits, some blackcurrant jam, a little bit of savory oak spice and a hint of chocolate chips. The wine is medium-to-moderately full-bodied with slightly reticent flavors - like the nose - feel rather vague and lacking form and shape: some ripe dark fruits, …

Better than the last one. Decent cab typicity. No complaints for the price.

Musty on the nose and then again in the mouth. A little blew off, but I hope this is just the bottle and not the wine. Either flawed or done.

($13) Anything from the Southern Hemisphere at Suze: Blind Red 1 - Rich nose of velvet, tannin, clearly a Bordeaux variety. Sweet on the palate - softer than the nose suggests. Ripe cherry, smoke, "jungle funk", caramel. Medium-bodied. Inexpensive? Yes as it turns out.
