Winemaker Jesus Madrazo is exceptionally talented and runs the estate with a qualitatively driven philosophy reminiscent of a top Bordeaux property. Individual plots and varieties are handled separately producing intricate, precise wines with great balance and ageing potential. This is a highly polished wine with notes of damson, violets, black olives and vanilla. Drink it over the next 10 - 12 years.

  • Feel free to mix Fine Wines with “regular” wines to make up your order of 12 bottles (or more!) in total. However, at least 6 bottles must be Fine Wine products, because Fine Wines require special distribution from our temperature-controlled Fine Wine Centre in London.

"Very serious nose - complete with real richness though still some oakiness. Very dark crimson. Great balance. Spicy and rich - very rewarding. Drink 2009-15. 17.5 points."
