Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich, earthy and appealing Bierzo, with blackberry aromas and a touch of fine herbs. The palate is puffed up and beefy, with creamy black fruit flavors and accents of prune and smoked meat. Enduring on the finish, with a roasted character. Borderline syrupy; drink now through 2010.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Among richly structured Bierzo wines, this is a dandy. Thick, jammy aromas with a cookie quality kick it off, and then comes a tidal wave of blackberry, pastry and mocha flavors. By now you’re saying “wow,” and then comes a warm, subtle, chocolaty finish. More rich and hedonistic than varietal or terroir-driven. Drink now–2012.
