James Suckling: "The dried-meat and ripe-fruit character is very intense on the nose with hints of berries, tobacco and wet leaf. Full-bodied, dense and rich with wonderful energized fruit. Layered. Long and zesty finish. Better in 2020." Jun 2017
Winery: "For the pure aficionado. Dark medium ruby in color with aromas of blackberry, black plum, violet, cassis and a touch of leather. Silky on the palate with fresh acidity and refined tannins, which lead to layers of espresso and floral notes on a long, expressive finish. Low yields, careful vineyard management and low intervention winemaking are the hallmark of this and all other Achával-Ferrer wines."
