I remember I tasted this wine, but 2008 vintage in February 2011 and I liked it a lot. I was interested how 2010 vintage would be. I was not disappointed, although slightly more expensive the wine is very nice and this time marks and spencer even acknowledged my guess that the wine was actually from Maycas del Limari, which was not stated on the front label, rather it was general SB label stating Limari valley. This vintage seems more fruitier and less grassy than 2008 and also in direct comparison to Yelands tasted at the same time, this bottle is rounder and less grassy.
