Could this have just been an unlucky bottle? Given the seriousness of this winery it could very well be the case. Unfortunately, this 1991 kind of disappointed us all because, while it was objectively good, we had greater expectations. It was a two-tier wine with an aroma that rested on evolved scents with wet leaves, tamarind and consistent smokiness, along with honey and almond. The flavor, on the other hand, was still lively thanks to a nice consistency, an excellent resolution and an acidity that continued to keep the wine alive. The finish was of average length, even if a bit covered, with a fresh acidity.
