Wow, the minerality really makes it an engaging mencia. Complex, deep and full of uncoiled power. Blueberries, spices, herbs, rose petals, white pepper and an attractive balsamic undertone. More closed on the nose, yet a little fleshier than the taut and equally exciting Rapolao. The tannins are firm but creamy and dissolved. Drink or hold [till end of the decade]. Score - 97.
