Jesús Barquín: Pale yellow. Serious and settled down, verydry, with seductive menthol notes and a characterof prolonged aging with lees. Decidedly a wine ofhigh quality. 90

Andrew Jefford: Full gold with a hint of green. Relativelyaromatically neutral; rooty or appley if anything.On the palate, it is a rather monolithic wine, witha faintly bitter end. Sound and satisfactory butnot a lot of intricacy or charm. 83

Andreas Larsson: Light gold, with a fine foam of bubbles. Thenose has some development and some aromaticdeviations, slightly animal and spicy, with mintand stone fruit. The palate is bone-dry, with aslight tannic presence; rather mellow aciditybut the dryness makes up for it. There is still,however, some dirt in the corners, and it finishesquite abruptly. 80
