Teresa Perez
C - Clean, brilliant, intense cherry red. N - Jammy plums, black olives, salty notes and seasonal fruit aromas, hint of leather and chocolate. Very elegant and full intensity. P - Powerful, full bodied, mouth watering without really being elegant. Very well blended, mellowed tannins, very fine fruit charged in the mouth, final spicy notes. Lovely flavors, excellent balance, very long and persistent finish.
Yoichi Sato
C - Quite clear, dense, very dark and deep garnet. N - Bark of Oriental wood, Oriental spice, wood notes, quite concentrated aromas of good quality, attractive intensity. P - Very lovely attack, plenty of tannins, but well integrated and nicely refined, attractively ripe flavors of quite good quality, well balanced, long finish. Very nice, but austere wine.
