Estimate
They hit the nail on the head with the harvest date of the 2016 Las Lamas, and the wine shows incredible precision, elegance and symmetry this year.
...hugely perfumed and complex bouquet evokes ripe red and blue fruits, candied flowers, exotic spice, licorice and smoky minerals. Sweet and penetrating on the palate, offering densely packed black raspberry, cherry liqueur, spicecake and lavender flavors that show outstanding delineation and back-end power. The mineral and floral notes drive an extremely long, energetic finish that leaves an alluring dark berry preserve note behind.
...fragrant cherry, dry earth and wild herb nose. Quite sleek, but impressive concentration, fine-grained tannins and lively acidity that are already beautifully married on the long filigree finish.
...softer, more delicate version of this wine, but with a bit of herbaceous expression too...texture is all about gentleness and velvet. Once opened, a floral touch comes out initially. At the extreme edge of the finesse, each vintage has less texture and continues to look for the essence.
