I saw in the shop among 2011 vintage one bottle of 2010 so I bough both to compare them as I remember I liked 2010 more (despite having less grapes from Leyda valley (cool climate) than 2011 vintage). Yes tasting both I can confirm that. This time I have 2010 vintage under screw cap, whereas my previous tastings in May 2012 and April 2011 were sealed under cork. It is amazing SB for this price and also it holds very nicely under screw cap. I like it a lot similarly to concha y Torro Casillero del Diablo 2011. Review of 2011 vintage will follow and to me it feels being from hotter year. Looking fw to 2012 vintage.
