This polished red shows a savory character, with leather, tea and tobacco flavors framing a core of dried cherry and licorice. Balsamic acidity gives this some freshness, and firm tannins frame the spicy finish.—Non-blind Marqués de Cáceres vertical (December 2015).

Big and bulky, with jammy, bacon-fat aromas that register as clumsy and rubbery. Seems to be on the fade; ten years into its existence the fruit has gone heavy and chewy. The plum and chocolate are still present and accounted for, but there isn’t much balance or structure. Was probably better five years ago.——M.S.(10/1/2005)—— 84
