Score 91/100 · Drink 2012-2018, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Aug 2012
The 2006 Norte has a fresh mint-tinged bouquet with fine minerality, although it needs just a little more vigor. The palate displays finer tannins than the 2005 with dark cherry and cassis notes towards the nicely poised finish. This is very fine. Drink now-2018.

Score 92/100 · Josh Raynolds, Jul 2009
(60% tempranillo, the rest garnacha, graciano and mazuelo) Glass-staining ruby. Expressive, high-pitched aromas of black raspberry, spices, cedar and dried flowers. Strong dark berry flavors show liqueur-like depth, but tangy mineral and rose nuances provide brightness. Admirably fresh and pure, with excellent finishing clarity and sappy persistence. I was looking for tannins but I couldn't find them.
