Still vividly red even
at the rim. The presence of slightly less oak than in a Gran Reserva does allow
the fruit to show off; a delightful, lifted blend of orange and raspberry.
Quite acidic (it hits the tongue hard) while the tannins are smooth enough to
make it very comfortable drinking. The oak is more of an aftertaste when the
fruit has moved on in a lovely, lengthy finish.
With time, it becomes
creamy and peppery and offers a hint of gamey secondaries on their way, but it
is clear that it will need some years in the bottle for them to make their
presence properly felt.
92/100
