" The embryonic Las Beatas this year is, at this moment, a delightful exuberance of violets and a variety of other flowers, as if you had stepped into a florist's. But the complexity increases as you keep sniffing, introducing rose petals, lavender, cochineal, bergamot, cassis, cedar, white pepper and blueberries. Then minerality comes through as well. A combination of chopped violets, dark cherries, blue fruit and pepper unwind on the palate, with firm, filigree tannins. Really long and peppery finish. Impressive and unique identity to this, making it an unforgettable experience. 1,521 bottles made from the 1.9-hectare vineyard. Already drinkable now, but will hold well over the next 20 years." 100pts James Suckling
