BUY THE WINE

Jesús Barquín:Very sweet and ripe, without reaching overripeness, on both nose and palate. Well structured; perhaps the tannin is too soft and the sweetness too obvious. Rather unremarkable finish. 14.5

Richard Mayson:Again very deep, opaque; slightly green, fragrant, green leafy/hedgerow aromas; slightly underripe on the palate, fresh, but with hard, green tannins persisting on the finish. One-dimensional. 12.5

Charles Metcalfe:Rich, sweet, slightly sulky nose, with a slight bruised-plum character. Palate is sweeter than average, with some chocolaty richness, good acidity, and firm tannins. Fades a bit on the finish, though still bright and lively. 13
